I had to provide photocopies of the following:
 
Pilot certificate
Current medical
Page in pilot's logbook where I was signed off to solo in the Lancair (they required 10 hours dual to insure me because I had no Lancair time when I bought the plane)
Page in logbook showing last BFR
Airworthiness certificate
Page in aircraft logbook showing last annual
Page in aircraft logbook showing total time on airframe
Page in engine logbook showing total time on engine and time since major overhaul if applicable (they paid to tear down and inspect the engine after the prop strike, even though there was no sudden stoppage).
Page in prop logbook showing total time on prop and time since major overhaul (they bought me a new prop, but they deducted 1/4 of the cost of a prop overhaul since I had 500 hrs. on the 2,000 hrs. TBO).
 
They also had me do a write-up on how the prop strike happened and send them digital photos of the damaged prop.  No adjustor ever looked at my plane.  They had me get a quote from my local FBO, then they advanced $9,200 to cover the new prop and the outside inspection work on the engine components.
 
Hope this is useful info.
