Why Us

Our
Process

Getting the right aviation insurance should not feel complicated. Ryan keeps the process clear and personal from start to finish.

step 01
1

Define the work and aircraft exposure

We identify the services performed, aircraft types, customers, locations, revenue, maximum aircraft values, test flights, vehicles, employees, subcontractors, and contractual obligations.

2

Match limits to the real operation

We review completed work exposure, the value of aircraft in your care, tools, property, and possible business interruption so limits are not selected from revenue alone.

Client Story

From problem To Solution

A real-world example of what it means to have a specialist review your coverage — and what can go wrong when you don’t.

The Situation

Illustrative Case Study

A mobile mechanic opens a permanent shop

An independent A&P IA mechanic expanded from mobile work into a leased maintenance facility. The change added customer aircraft in the mechanic’s care, tools and equipment at a fixed location, premises exposure, employees, and occasional test flights. The broker reviewed maximum aircraft values, completed work, contracts, property, and operating procedures so the new insurance program reflected the full operation rather than only the prior mobile services.

03 — THE SITUATION

THE SITUATION

A vintage aircraft, the wrong policy.

Twelve months after placing the policy, James made a precautionary landing at a grass strip in eastern Texas. The aircraft sustained gear damage on rollout — not catastrophic, but significant. The repair estimate came in at $22,000.
Because the policy had been placed correctly, the claim was handled without dispute. The agreed value was on file, the cause of loss was covered, and Ryan managed the claims process directly with the insurer. James had his aircraft back in the air within six weeks.

FAQ

what you need to know

Still have questions? Joe will respond personally.

Ask a question

Coverage for liability arising from your work or parts after the aircraft is back with the customer. The
scope depends on the services you declare, so list every type of work you perform.

Coverage when you’re legally responsible for damage to a customer’s aircraft in your care. Set the per aircraft limit for your most valuable aircraft and the per occurrence limit for the total value on site at one time.

Don’t assume so. They may need specific approval, named pilots, or separate coverage. Disclose check flights, pickups, and deliveries when the policy is written.

No. Liability and property are separate coverages. Tools, equipment, and inventory need their own coverage, including when they leave your shop.

Yes. Terms depend on your work, territory, aircraft types, experience, and revenue. The policy
should specifically reflect work done away from a fixed shop.
