Thanks = Mark. $2900 is=20 quite high in my opinion, but a $100k hull value has a lot to do with = that, I'm=20 sure. Since I'm new here, I don't know what kind of airplane = everyone=20 has...what are you flying?

Chad,

It is my belief that the Lycosaurus folks are propagating the = myth that=20 you can't insure your airplane unless it has a certified engine. = I=20 insured through Sky Smith Ins. I hadn't anticipated having to = get=20 insurance before renting a hangar at the municipal airport, but they = wouldn't=20 rent to me until I had it (with the city named on the policy). = So, it=20 wasn't IF I wanted to insure my project, but that I MUST insure it, or = I=20 couln't move it to the airport. This was "not in motion" = coverage. =20 Later, when I was ready for first flight, it wasn't a problem. = And they=20 covered me from first flight on.

I would highly recommend that you use Tracy's products. = That is one=20 question they asked me and once I confirmed that I was using RWS = redrive and=20 engine controller, the rest was pretty painless. Premium was = $2900 for=20 $100,000 hull value.
