P&E
OWNERSHIP
"At the end of the day,
an insurance company
simply wants to know
that you're fit to fly, on
top of your game, and
in good health."
-Bill Bowman

*5-year warranty is available for purchases made through December 31, 2018
FAA medicals and/or flight reviews if
you are flying a complex or higher-performance aircraft.
* Set realistic expectations. Be prepared
for the possibility that the maximum liability limit a company is willing to offer is
less than you would prefer.
* Avoid switching insurance companies
after age 70. As a general rule, companies
are reluctant to take on a new customer
after age 70, but are willing to continue
to insure existing customers well past the
age of 70. Rates will increase as you climb
the age ladder. Switching companies may
get you a lower rate for the short term, but
if you plan to keep flying for many years
to come, pick a solid company and stay
with it.
* Review all the available discounts with
your insurance broker. Sometimes discount opportunities can be inadvertently
overlooked: Hangared aircraft, an instrument rating, technically advanced avionics,
and a claim-free history all may earn you
a discount.
Ultimately, insurance companies are
looking for indicators that a pilot is a
safe bet. "It's Safety 101," said Bowman.
"Much more frequent flight reviews. Fly
regularly. At the end of the day, an insurance company simply wants to know that
you're fit to fly, on top of your game, and
in good health. What a pilot can do to best
help their chances is to make sure they're
doing that...above and beyond what the
regs require."
