Lets talk insurance

[Helikelby]

Can anybody recommend some companies they have dealt with? $1,000,000 dollar liability is in need. Any advice would be great.

If you are in the US try Costello Insurance. www.aviationi.com Simple no BS policies and answers.

Thanks ghaynes,

I called them and got the ball rolling! Not a bad price for $1,000,000 liability.

The website says they won't offer insurance for RC model aircraft. Did they offer you insurance?

 

[SleepyC]

yea they say "[h=1]Sorry, we are unable to assist if the aircraft to be insured is a radio controlled model aircraft.[/h]"

Costello won't insure hobby use. Go to to AMA for that. They only insure use for business purposes.

we use both what trec-r posted. transport risk is killer, they offer full coverage down to liability only. They even offer product liability on uav parts which is hard to find as well.. Killer company, the boss has a phantom and is hooked. They also offer red waivers for minimal fees so your payload is fully covered as well. The problems with them is it is each individual aircraft and gets spendy. The aircraft gets a barcode and all the gear is stickered. each additional is a whole seperate deal

Aerialpak is good enough for a liability only policy carrier, They seem a little more beat up from offering policies on this stuff for a while but they seem true. I know a guy that's recently had a claim through them and it all went through, kept his livliehood in tact. They offer full fleet coverage under one small policy so to just get in the door with additionaly insured papers for gigs works easily and cheap

Transport risk loves hearing kloner sent ya, usually gets you in a little easier than not
