Mexican Liability Insurance Policies from Aviation Insurance Resources

Friday, November 30th, 2012

Did you know that while most aviation insurance policies include Mexico in their coverage, Mexican regulation requires a third-party liability policy be purchased from a Mexican-based insurance agency? Failing to comply with these requirements could result in heavy fines or even the impounding of your aircraft.

Fortunately, Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR) can help!

Through our partnership with MacAfee and Edwards, AIR can set you up with a Mexican liability insurance policy. MacAfee and Edwards is a Surplus Line Insurance Broker specializing in ALL LINES OF INSURANCE FOR MEXICO.

  • MEXICAN LIABILITY INSURANCE POLICY through AIR
  • Radio station license

Aviation Insurance & Aircraft Valuation: Do you have enough Coverage?

Friday, November 2nd, 2012

How do you know you are making a good investment when you are buying an aircraft? Unfortunately, aircraft are not the solid investment they once were, with many not holding the value they have in the past. Because of this, it is important to thoroughly research an aircraft’s value before buying or selling a plane.

Furthermore, it is important to know an aircraft’s value when refinancing an aircraft loan or purchasing aircraft insurance.

  • Underinsuring an Aircraft: If you do not have the right amount of coverage for your aircraft, you are essentially gambling. You are betting that your aircraft doesn’t sustain damage. When an under insured aircraft experiences a loss, it can lead to “constructive total loss.” This is when the cost to repair the aircraft plus potential salvage value exceeds its insured hull value.
  • Over Insuring an Aircraft: When over insuring an aircraft, you are simply spending more for coverage than needed.

As you can clearly see, knowing the correct value when insuring your aircraft is invaluable!

The Solution: A free aircraft valuation from Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR).

AIR is now offering aircraft owners, like yourself, a free and easy way to calculate an accurate hull value for your plane, allowing you to obtain the right amount of insurance coverage. With AIR’s new aircraft valuation package you will receive:

1. A free Bluebook basic valuation for standard aircraft.

2. 20% off title search and filing services.

3. Quotations solicited from all the major underwriters that would be most competitive for the type of flying you do.

These services are only available if you request a free quote. So what are you waiting for?

Please click here and fill out the form to request a FREE blue book valuation from Aviation Insurance Resources. And if you have any questions, you can contact us by calling 877-247-7767 or visit AIR-PROS.com today!

Aircraft Builder’s Risk Insurance: Is Your Aircraft Project Protected?

Thursday, October 11th, 2012

Building or restoring an aircraft can be a fun and rewarding hobby. After all, nothing beats the feeling of someday flying your very own creation. But building/restoring an aircraft is also a lot of work, requiring both time and dedication. And between the hours of hard work and tough choices you will have to make, insurance coverage typically gets forgotten or ignored.

But what happens if disaster – flooding, theft, vandalism, etc. – strikes? Are you covered? Unfortunately, probably not…

Luckily, Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR) has the answer! We recently unveiled our new builders and restorers insurance program, designed to protect the aircraft during the building or restoring stage regardless of pilot experience and qualifications. Customized with your needs in mind, this new insurance plan offers flexible liability and hull coverage options.

“As a friend of many aircraft builders and as a homebuilt owner myself, I can only imagine the devastation of losing an aircraft mid-build,” said Jon Harden, president and founder of AIR. “Our affordable program is worth it just for the peace of mind.”

If you are in need of protection for your aircraft or aircraft project , you can receive a free Aircraft Insurance quote by contacting Aviation Insurance Resources at 877-247-7767 or Air-Pros.com.

AIR Insurance Policies at Fourth Annual Midwest LSA Expo

Thursday, September 6th, 2012

This September, from Thursday the 6th through Saturday, the 8th, Aviation Insurance Resources’s (AIR’s) very own Gregg Ellsworth, our Regional Representative, will be attending the 4th Annual Midwest LSA Expo in Mt. Vernon, Illinois – an event organized to sell Light Sport Aircraft, LSA Ancillary Services, and LSA related services.

Ellsworth will be available at the event to talk with clients about LSA insurance, and to provide comprehensive run-downs on what AIR’s policies include.

Here at AIR, we know that building and restoring aircrafts is a substantial investment of time, dedication, and labor. Plane construction enthusiasts as well as pilot hobbyists rightfully derive immense gratification from their work and yearn to start their engines and take off into the great blue abyss with their newly completed aircraft. In the excitement of so doing, practical matters like insurance coverage are often tossed to the wayside.

Many aircraft construction projects begin at home, but they are not covered by homeowner’s insurance. Stored in hangars during assembly, they may be susceptible to flood and storm damage. Ground risk hull insurance – for when your plane is not in motion – protects your aircraft from the aforementioned liabilities, in addition to fire, theft, animal damage, wind damage, hangar collapse, and more.

Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR) recently launched a builders and restorers insurance policy. Customized with the builder’s needs in mind, the new insurance plan through AIR offers flexible liability and hull coverage options. The policy is designed to protect the aircraft during the building or restoring stage regardless of pilot experience and qualifications.

If you’re attending this week’s Midwest LSA Expo, don’t forget to stop off and meet Gregg Ellsworth and learn more about AIR’s services to pilots and those with a passion for flight. We’ll be sure to help you take wing.

If you have any questions, please contact Aviation Insurance Resources by calling 877-247-7767 or visit AIR-PROS.com today!
