The problem is they don't *have* one yet. They don't know the tail
number. They know they are going to buy one, just not which one. Which
is why I'm trying to find out some 'ballpark' information in this
forum.

My boss owns a Citation CJ that is certified for single pilot operations
(Part 91) and he flys it himself. He has about 6000 hours including about
600 in type. He is the PIC, first last and always. If I fly along, and am
rated but not for SP operations, why would his insurance go UP if he now has
a extra set of hands and eyes in the cockpit with him?

If the owner called with you, I'm sure he could give them the exact tail
number - it's just a quote...

Well, I tried calling a couple aviation insurance agencies myself. One
said they couldn't give me a number until I had a specific aircraft
they could run, and when asked about a ballpark figures, they said 'it
all depends', which wasn't really helpful. The other place I called
doesn't do commercial insurance anymore. So I was just joping somebody
here had some experience in this area without me having to call a
dozen different agencies.

Cheers,

Why don't you and the owner call the insurance agency and let them
give you a quote...

Hello. I'm a Commercial Pilot with single engine, multi engine, and
instrument ratings. I have a little less than 600 hours total time,
and only about 20 multi. I have been approached about a possible
position on the West Coast that would be a combination IT staffer
and co-pilot for a King Air 200 the company is going to buy. I know
the owner of the company, and it is pretty solid that I could have
the job if I want it.

My question is about insurance. Now the owner would send me to
training for a type rating in the King Air, but will an insurance
company have a major problem, if the captain is an ATP with a ton

of
King Air time? Will they charge a fortune because of my limited
experience? Do they care about the hours the right-seater has?

While
they are only looking at the King Air for now, would the insurance
company care about the co-pilot time if it were a Citation? Anybody
who could shed some light on this, or who has experience in this
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Cap
