With the UAV/UAS industry skyrocketing, drone operators are quickly finding themselves in need of liability coverage. While many insurance companies have developed policies to protect this ever-growing commercial industry, there has been lack in coverage for those providing UAV instruction…until now.
The Society of Aviation and Flight Educators, or SAFE, focuses on “fostering professionalism and excellence in aviation through continuing education, professional standards, and accreditation.” Through their exclusive partnership with Starr Aviation and Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR), the SAFE Certified Flight Instructor (CFI) policy now extends coverage to the liability for negligent instruction, property damage, bodily injury and use of a non-owned drone.
The SAFE CFI policy includes coverage for piston powered single and multi-engine land or sea aircraft having a standard, experimental, restricted or light sport aircraft certificate. The recent extension to include UAVs makes the SAFE CFI policy the most extensive flight instruction policy on the market!
As the UAV industry continues to flourish, AIR will keep up to date with the latest industry trends and operator needs. To apply for a SAFE CFI policy click here today!
