Diversion airfields are a slight problem in Iraq, mainly due to obtaining half reasonable weather information, but we use Erbil and Kirkuk in the North, and Basra in the South, all about one hour's flying time from Baghdad at about 260 kts.
As for life insurance, I have none. Unfortunately, I am one of those mortals who has no one who cares.
However, I was speaking to a businessman at Baghdad International two days ago who told me he had difficulty in arranging life insurance, but arranged it at $10,000 for a week for $400,000 of cover. Apparently, the 'in the field' private security personnel have cover for $5,000 a day. However, I am not sure what the level of cover is.
I hope this gives some kind of guidance.
