This case involves a collision at the DeKalb-Peachtree Airport (a facility within the governing authority of DeKalb County) between an aircraft operated by an employee of appellant, Epps Air Service, Inc., and a truck driven by appellee Davis, a maintenance man at the airport. Suit for damages was filed by appellant against Davis and A. C. Guhl, as Chairman of the Board of Commissioners of DeKalb County. Appellees filed an answer, including a counterclaim by DeKalb County. Summary judgment was granted in favor of the appellees, dismissing plaintiff's complaint and further granting partial summary judgment in favor of the county as to its counterclaim on the issue of liability. This appeal seeks review of those judgments.
