at the time of delivery to the first purchaser or upon replacing or adding a component part
that is alleged to have been a proximate cause of an accident. While protecting such manufacturers
during a remote period beginning long after the completion of their work, the article imposes
no unfair burden on the injured, deceased, or damaged party because a party is still afforded
an avenue of legal redress from others who are more likely to have been responsible for or
could have prevented such injury, death, or damage. (d) It is thus the legislative
objective to provide for the abolishing of rights of action, with certain exceptions, against
commercial aviation aircraft manufacturers that would have accrued after the passage of 12
years from delivery to the first purchaser or from replacing or adding a component part that
is alleged to have been a proximate cause of an accident, and all such actions will be forever
barred without relief to a claimant. Where causes of action accrue during...

Section 37-10A-1 Legislative findings. The Legislature makes the following findings and statements
regarding the need for shortline railroad rehabilitation in Alabama: (1) Shortline railroads
