I want to start this thread off by saying that I am not affiliated with this company in any way, nor do I receive any commission or profit if you get approved for coverage. I am making this post to simply inform seasoned pilots, who may not know, that good coverage at great prices exist. I have cleared this through the mods prior to posting as well...
First, not everyone will qualify. I have held a commercial instrument ticket for 22 years with a ZERO incident/accident record. The company that I am taking about is Global Aerospace. They do not issue an hourly based policy like you see floating around the net today. They are insuring you much like they do any other aircraft, or like your own insurance company does for your vehicle. They take into account the replacement cost of your vehicle (your sUAS) your risk of liability (experience and accident record) and make a risk determination based on these factors. There may be more than just these, but you get the picture.
So, for those of you paying the hourly premiums or have managed an annual policy that are not with Global, you are going to be blown away by this paragraph. My annual premium for my Inspire 2 barely breaks the $1,000 mark. That includes 1 million dollars worth of liability coverage and a complete replacement of the hull value with a 5 percent deductible. That covers it is flying or not.
So, anyone looking to get a quote, can contact Arthur J. Gallagher & Co (this is who I go through, I am sure there are other brokerages). I am not going to post their number or my specific contact there so as not to muddy the waters here. This is just my way of telling you seasoned pilots where you can go to get a premium policy for a descent price.
