Most insurance claims are incurred by XC pilots with poor
flying skills, landing out with minimal options and damaging their a/c.

What country are you flying in? My memory might be fooling me, but I recall that
more insurance claims in the US come from local flights and ground handling damage
than XC landouts.

And, I don't need three landout options at 1500' - just one good one is enough.
