Confabulous

The insurance banter posted elsewhere is inaccurate in the case of Deltajets.

Because of the size of the fleet, we can insure one aircraft at a time, temporarily up the cover for airshows or busy weeks, then retrograde back to single cover.

The relationship with the insurance company is very good and they are very flexible.

The main limitation in the future will be engine life, probably in about a decade or so. Once engines are life expired, that's it and there are relatively few around.

My advice is to get your money out and come and fly. These things wont be around forever and you are a long time dead. Guaranteed grin for at least a month afterwards.

Ref going to the USA - I have it on good authority you wont even get a sniff at the controls (post 9/11 blah blah).

Ref JP3 v JP5 - anyone who thinks the performance is even remotely similar needs medical help!
