What Is Flying Club Insurance?
A Flying Club Insurance Policy is an annual policy designed specifically to offer liability coverage to protect flying clubs and their members from the liability risk of bodily injury or property damage caused by the operation of an aircraft.
Ask how the proposed policy treats defense costs for covered claims, including whether those costs reduce the available liability limit. Flying club insurance policies can also include hull coverage, which offers physical damage coverage to cover aircraft owned by the club. Cross-liability is another optional coverage, which may address liability between club members, subject to the policy terms.
Flying Club Insurance Policies Offer Coverages Such As:
- Liability Coverage:
- This coverage offers 3rd party protection for the club and its members in the event of an accident or incident resulting in bodily injury or property damage, due to the operation of a club aircraft.
- Typically includes coverage for legal defense, in the event the club or its members are sued due to the operation of a club aircraft.
- Cross-Liability:
- Cross-liability may address certain liability claims between club members when included in the policy. Review the insured parties, exclusions and wording with BWI.
- Hull Coverage:
- Hull coverage may cover physical damage to the insured club aircraft, subject to its insured value, deductibles, covered uses and other policy terms.
- Coverage options may include Full-Flight-Hull, Ground In-Motion, and Ground Not-In-Motion
- Hull coverage may cover physical damage to the insured club aircraft, subject to its insured value, deductibles, covered uses and other policy terms.
