Insurance

Hello, Adam,

Having viewed the responses to this topic, there does seem to be differing answers to some of the points raised.
Of course, I am delighted to learn that the two pilots in the crashed aircraft are now OK...great news!
The reason for the crash I opine, was not a matter for PPruners to debate but for the US authorities to investigate and resolve and I trust that the final analysis will be duly published.
The matter of insurance however, I would have thought, should be of vital interest to prospective students.
If the info being banded around means that this particular flight training organisation does not have in place, a comprehensive insurance policy which will protect and cover its customers when in training in a Company aircraft, then I, for one, am astonished.
What Company would not consider such to be a normal part of a service contract to protect their clients?
I trust the absence of such a policy is clearly noted in any 'enrolment' paperwork prior to acceptance to train?
Am I being naive?
