Unless they owed money on them, they probably were not insured except
for
liability.


Owning an airplane you can't afford to insure at least when it's tied
down seems like a rather unenjoyable form of gambling. At least in
Vegas you get pretty girls brining you free booze while you watch your
money get swept off the table.

Well, then talk to roughly 90% of the owners out there and straighten them
out. I don't own an airplane - yet, but I do know that the vast majority of
owners out there only pay for liability insurance and risk the hull damage
themselves, unless of course they are financing the airplane. Then the
lenders tell you that you have to have the hull insurance.
