Short Term Non-owned Insurance Now Available!

Posted on July 6, 2024 by Scott Smith

What is Non-Owned?

Non-owned or as it is more commonly called, “Renters insurance”, is a liability policy that can provide bodily injury, property damage and aircraft hull protection for a pilot that is flying an aircraft they do not own.

 

“Do not own” is the key phrase. You do not have to own an aircraft to be found liable for damage or injuries. It is important to note that this is liability coverage; in addition, it is not only for rental aircraft. A borrowed, or even a flying club aircraft can put the pilot in a position of potential responsibility or liability.

Very simply put, liability means the coverage is used if the named insured is found liable for damage or injury to a third party.

Most Non-owned policies are annual (12 month) policies.

What if you have you found yourself in a situation where you need non-owned (renters insurance), but only for a short period of time? Maybe on vacation and want to get a checkout and fly at the local FBO, or you only need to use an aircraft you do not own for a week or two. Do you really need a year long “annual ” policy?  Maybe what you need is a daily, weekly or monthly policy.

Depending on the state, now you can buy a Short Term Non-Owned Insurance Policy with the click of your mouse.

Looking for Short Term CFI Non-owned Insurance?  That’s available too.

To get a quote click here and complete the application.

Note: a few states only allow annual policies.

Reasons to Fly: EAA events, activities added to ForeFlight capability

Reasons to Fly: EAA events, activities added to ForeFlight capability

Cooperative agreement brings thousands of EAA events to popular pilot database

EAA AVIATION CENTER, OSHKOSH, Wisconsin — (June 24, 2024) — Thousands of EAA events and aviation activities are now easy to access on ForeFlight, one of the world’s most popular flight databases, via an agreement between ForeFlight and the Experimental Aircraft Association.

“Adding EAA’s more than 14,000 annual aviation events makes the ForeFlight database even more comprehensive for the thousands of pilots who rely on it for flight information,” said Ren Scott, EAA’s director of business development. “ForeFlight has always been an excellent source of flight planning and safety, but with EAA’s information it will add more reasons to fly and destinations to discover.”

The cooperative effort is now officially live, giving  EAA chapters an opportunity to update their upcoming activities on EAA’s calendar of events. That calendar will regularly and automatically be loaded into the ForeFlight database for pilot reference.

“EAA shares The Spirit of Aviation like no other organization, from mega-events such as Oshkosh to the thousands of local chapter fly-ins, rallies, and airport pancake breakfasts held every year,” said Ryan McBride, ForeFlight’s Head of Community. “This joint project with EAA will make our new capability more comprehensive and useful as it brings information on the aviation gatherings that add so much to the pilot experience.”

Local EAA events must be listed on the online EAA calendar of events to be included in the upcoming ForeFlight capability. More details on listing local events are available through the EAA chapter office.
