Not to sound ignorant, but I am unfamiliar with the term "Step up
policies" in this context? Anyone care to expand?

I don't know for sure, but I think they mean policies for pilots looking to
step up to the next level of airplane.

For example, a Mooney pilot with 500 hours, 200 complex, wants to buy a
twin. A step up policy would have a requirement for training before solo
pilot, or PIC with passengers would be covered.

There seems to be a trend where no one wants to cover a twin owner without
lots of twin hours. At the same time, many schools are no longer renting
their twins without instructors on board because they get a break that way.

If this keeps up, twin prices will plummet even further.
