Why Understanding Your Insurance Cost Matters Whether you’re a solo UAV operator or running a multi-drone business, commercial drone insurance is an essential part of your operation. It protects you from liability, covers your drones and equipment, and helps you meet client and contract requirements. But one of the most common questions we hear at […]
Whether you’re upgrading to a faster aircraft, selling your current plane, or buying your first, there’s a critical detail many owners forget: Insurance doesn’t transfer with ownership. It’s a simple but costly assumption. One that can leave both buyers and sellers exposed, and one we see every single month. In this post, we’ll break down […]
Most pilots don’t fire their broker. They just renew. Year after year, with the same broker. Even when the service slips. Even when the premium creeps up. Even when you start asking yourself, “What am I actually getting here?” But here’s the truth: Every broker should earn your business. Every year. If they’re not, it might […]
If you fly a Robinson R66 you don’t own, whether as a contract pilot, instructor, or demo pilot, there’s one thing you should know: You are personally liable for any damage or injury that occurs while you’re flying that aircraft. Most instructors and contract pilots assume that the owner’s insurance covers them. But unless your […]
Aircraft insurance renewals often arrive in your inbox like clockwork. You see the familiar quote, check the price, and—if it’s not wildly different—you click, pay, and move on. But here’s the reality: That quick click could be costing you hundreds—or even thousands—of dollars. Why? Because aircraft insurance policies are complex. And if you’re not reviewing […]
If you’re like most aircraft owners, you’ve probably asked yourself: “How can I get a better rate on my insurance without cutting coverage?” The answer may be simpler than you think: fly more, and train smarter. Aircraft insurance underwriters aren’t just looking at your hours. They’re looking for signs that you’re staying sharp, current, and […]
If you’re a Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) giving dual instruction in a helicopter that you don’t personally own, there’s something you need to know: The aircraft’s insurance policy probably doesn’t protect you. That’s right, even though you’re the one with experience, oversight, and a student in your left seat, you could be personally liable for […]
When you call an aircraft insurance broker, you probably expect honesty. Straight answers. Guidance you can trust. But there’s one thing most brokers won’t tell you: They don’t work for you. They work for your renewal. That’s not how it should be. The Truth About Aviation Insurance Incentives Most brokers in aviation insurance earn their […]
The Robinson R66 has redefined turbine helicopter ownership for private pilots and small operators. With its five-seat cabin, Rolls-Royce RR300 engine, and turbine-class performance, the R66 bridges the gap between affordable piston flight and high-performance rotorcraft operations. But insuring a turbine helicopter like the R66 isn’t as straightforward as its piston predecessors, and too often, […]
When most pilots receive an aircraft insurance quote, they assume it’s based on a few key factors: hull value, total flight hours, maybe claim history. And while those elements are important, they only scratch the surface. The truth? Underwriters evaluate over 30 different data points when determining your aircraft insurance rate. Some are straightforward. Others are […]
