The other flying club on our field has just been told by Avemco that they

confirmation from Avemco. If true, this is a big blow.

I don't know the real reason, but a Cherokee 6 isn't complex, its High
Performance. Maybe that's the hot button.


It might be the size and/or value, because the club that got told that
they can't insure their Lance any more has two Arrows and Avemco didn't
say anything about them. We've also got a Dakota, which is also HP.

One thing the club is going to ask Avemco if they'd insure us if we split
off the Lance as a separate membership category with restricted
membership. We currently require 350 hours total time plus a ten hour
checkout for the Lance - I just checked out in this winter.
