I was told yesterday that in order to pilot a fairly high-performance SEP - and to be properly insured for same - it is necessary to take a "high performance rating", which I have personally never heard of except in relation to turbine-powered aircraft.
I'll be asking my insurers, naturally, but I know some of you guys on this forum fly fast singles, so ... is this true ? Or is it yet another load of old ... turbulence ?
Also, do any of you fast boys/girls know if insurers tend to require minimum hours or training before giving the green light ?
Thanks,
FF
