REFLECTOR: Insurance
I just spoke to Avemco this morning to
find out what my insurance would cost,
if I decided to make my fixed gear 173 XL a
retract and found out some bad news.
They will not insure my plane if I do not meat
there requirements .
First 500 hr total fight time this is not a lot
for some but is a long way off
for me.
They also will not cover me with a Ivo prop or
an auto engine conversion.
The IVO prop I could do with out but I had set
out on this project with the
idea of an auto conversion.
They also told me there was no difference in
cost from RG to Fixed
I thought this very strange no more charge for a more complex
aircraft
Yet they limit in areas (auto conversion) where I have not
herd of any Incidences
of damage or insurance claims because of the conversions gone
wrong.
If any one can enlighten me on some of the other insurance
company that are out there that I will be able insure me Please let me
know.
I still have plenty of time before this is needed but I just
like to know where
I stand. and my options in advance
Thank You
