If you cause damage to his airplane, his insurance will cover his costs and
then come after you.

Which is why I only rent cheap, elderly airplanes, even though my FBO has a
stable of new G1000 172s. I continually wonder why everybody else flies them,
because the last time I checked (just a few weeks ago) AOPA would not even quote
you on enough renter's insurance to cover one.
