The Downside of Not Having Your Own Aircraft Renter's Insurance
By: Marci Veronie, Avemco Insurance Company, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing
What are the "exposures" pilots face when operating a non-owned aircraft?
The most obvious is damage to the rented or borrowed aircraft itself (Aircraft Damage Liability or ADL). If the borrowing or renting pilot causes that damage, there is a strong likelihood that she or he will be held responsible, if not by owner of the aircraft, then by the owner's insurer through a process of "subrogation". The insurer will seek to recover the amount it has paid out to the owner, and the owner will want to recover his or her deductible. If ADL coverage is purchased, it can pay for loss of use when the flight school or FBO loses revenue when it is unable to rent the airplane during the repair process.
Less obvious, but potentially much more serious, is bodily injury to passengers and people outside the aircraft. Another exposure often overlooked is damage to the property of others - including other aircraft, hangars, cars, runway lights, houses, crop fields etc.
The exposure most frequently overlooked, however, is not the injury or damage caused to others, but rather the cost to defend oneself from the litigation that arises out of the accident. It's a scary prospect to face a plaintiff's attorney alone, and an expensive prospect to find and fund an aviation-savvy attorney out of your own pocket
