It is the responsibility of an aircraft manufacturer, and the maker of each and every aircraft part to ensure that an airplane is made without any design or manufacturing defects. The manufacturer is responsible for aircraft manufacturing or design defects if the defect causes harm to others. An aircraft can be built strictly according to manufacturer specifications and maintained according to required guidelines— and still a devastating crash occurs because of core aircraft design or manufacturing defects. If there are defects in the manufacturing or design of the aircraft or a part of it, it may be doomed no matter how experienced the pilot or how careful the aircraft owner.
An airplane or helicopter can be made without a single aircraft design defect, but one of its component parts might still have a manufacturing defect. For instance, a critical part might not be machined exactly to design specifications and be installed on the aircraft. If the part is not a perfect fit, as required by the plans and specifications, and it fails and causes a crash, the manufacturer is responsible even if it did everything it was required to do to try to make the part correctly.
While an aircraft design defect or manufacturing defect can easily lead to a crash, improper maintenance of the aircraft can be just as deadly. Sometimes the plane or helicopter and all of its components are well-crafted and free of defect, but due to faulty maintenance the plane or parts fail to work as expected.
