My Dad is on our policy and he’s 77. ATP with 27,000 hours large multi commercial but less than 50 in the 337. We pay about $2800 a year.

Sad

Won't offer a quote on a FIXED GEAR, CENTERLINE THRUST aircraft. That, my aviation friends, is ridiculous!

Idea for older pilots

There was time when a older friend/mentor was having eye surgery and would lose his medical for the next year. Said friend added me to his insurance, and flew everywhere with me for that year (actually a bit more than a year, since he had some trouble getting his medical back). I watched him like a hawk, because I was technically PIC, but the guy had been flying since the 1940's and was basically an ace. All he really did anyway were the take-offs and landings, AP did the rest. He did have to pay my expenses when we flew, and he always got me my own room at the same place he was staying, ate in the same restaurants with him, went to the same shows. It was a dream for a young broke pilot! For those who can afford it, this is a viable route to be insured, and keep flying. This was in a '95 58 Baron, BTW, insured at $500,000. I want to say the premiums were about $8000 per year, but this was back in the early 2000's.

There was a good video on an web about the hardening of insurance requirements. They had some good recommendations ,sky smith recommends that we should fly more often.

this was on avweb this week, copy link:

https://www.avweb.com/multimedia/avi...?MailingID=460

Avemco covered me right at purchase, 0 hours time in type, only twin time was what was done for twin rating. But had to have 25 hours with copilot time in type which was fine with me as I only had single time. Some might consider steep-ish premium at 4G but 4-5 years ago got quotes up to 9G, not avemco, no twin rating, only time in singles. Also lowered hull insurance. I'm 50's with 20 yr hiatus in flying due to career, 600 hours. I knew taking 337 plunge was going to mean pony up on insurance, the cost of doing this along with everything else. Did two years "prep" with individual ownership of 182 ("working way up"). Not for the faint of heart or wallet. Video has important message about currency...fly as much as possible and sprinkle in training.

Just a quick update,on a 336 could only get one quote from Avemco,4800 for 50 K hull and 4400 for 4200 Hull value. Paying roughly $ 50 a flying hour for insurance doesn’t excite me.

I just got $125k hull on a P337 for $4500. Initially it was misquoted as a T337 at $3200. That sounds like a lot for a $50k hull value 336.

That is completely insane - 15% of the hull value in annual premiums???

that's what I thought. I'm light on multi, and 0 in type but I'm a CFI/CFII. They only wanted 10 hours dual. Seems like a disconnect there if it's so expensive but they want a fairly light checkout.

I've got parker woodruff working on it. I don't want to double broker it, thank you though.

I knew it wasn't going to be cheap but I was hoping 3-4k would be a reasonable expectation.

edit: a P was a hard no when I asked like a year ago.
