My wife basically told me that I couldn't fly if I didn't have some life insurance, so I went on a search. It's hard to find any life insurance when you're 60, but I finally found a deal I could live with through Pilot Insurance Center. Ed |

Very knowledgeable - was able to get a good policy thru AIG with the appropriate riders for competition soaring. They understood the nuances.. Bob Deighton - 1 866 365 6558 |

I went through that same exercise about a year ago and also ended up with Pilot Insurance Center (PIC). They are good folk and know their business. That said, just like any other large purchase, get three bids. The difference in rates between my three bids was amazing! I didn't have any particular problems finding three companies who were willing to quote me insurance with an aviation rider. Vaughn |

You can get an online quote from the carrier (IIRC Minnesota Mutual). After that though, you do have to fill out a paper application. |

Judge for yourself if it's a good deal or not Lincoln Benefit an Allstate affiliate has an aviation program GT Platinum. I applied and was excepted in 2003. I was 50 y/o at the time single engine land private pilot glider rated instrument rated, it costs me $100 per month for $500,000. This is a 15 year policy at this rate. Seems to me the conversation with the agent that sold this to me that they don't care for commercial or better rated pilots for some reason (exposure). |

Many life insurance policies deny all coverage when flying in experimental aircraft. If you don't ask they may not tell you, but it may well be in the "small print". Andy |

I went through this exercise as well. You need to be very
careful and speak to the ins. co. directly. The policy that I bought said that the aircraft "must be certified by a governmental agency". It does not say the FAA. Since my ' glider was certified by the country of origin, it was good as far as they were concerned. Bob Andy wrote: On Sep 16, 4:37 am, 5E wrote: Didn't see anything about this in the archives.
