Insurance: Life, Loss of Licence, Sickness etc (NOT hull insurance)

[Ascend Charlie]

Talk to Noall & Co, 02-9922 3866.

They can stitch you up for income insurance, Dread Disease cover and probably regular life cover. But expect to pay.

Give the Airline Pilots Federation a ring in Melbourne ive been with them for 5yrs "not cheap but good coverage" and tax deductable.

AFAP

Check the fine print: when I needed to call on LoL insurance, AFAP refused to pay on a fine print clause, because I was getting Worker's Comp at the time. Convinced me to finally give up on them, after the airline dispute fiasco.

Ive got $100,000 LOL+$200,000 death cover form $1600 a year and to be quite honest i hope i never have to use it.
If you are younger its cheaper and more.

[RobboRider]

I've got death and a seperate disability cover with Royal Sun Alliance which I got through a broker here in Cairns.

But If I recall it was somewhat round about at getting it. I already had policies with R S A but they excluded the flying part.

First up I had to get off shore (through LLoyds I think) and after one or two years the broker was able to get R S A to drop the flying exclusion and the price remained the same.

So even if you initially have to pay more it won't necessarily stay that way. I can give you the brokers name if you want it, but he's a long way from your place.

He is a pilot as well and has a lot of clients through our local aero club and airport. so he has a good understanding of the situation.

licence an medical insurance info required.

Guys just trying to keep on the pace of the game.
As freelance I wondered what insurance schemes there are available that cover loss of licence or loss of medical.
I believe that BALPA do one but can you chaps shed light as to the best one to go for and what are the pit falls to look for when taking out a policy.

also is there an additional policy for offshore work or is it all covered under one hat.

Like wise is there discrimination for old injurys or is it that as you have a class 1 medical without restrictions on it you are classed as fit.

Any assistance and direction pointers would be extreamley appreciated.

thanks in advance guys.

B99AJB,

Any chance you could share the links?

Been thinking about getting some insurance for a while

[Bravo 99 (AJB)]

stand by i will see if i can cut and paste
This was from

As for loss of licence insurance (your current thread) I looked into it a while back. There were a few companies in the UK that would do it, and you were insured for so many times your yearly salary. So you might be insured for 3x your annual salary if you failed a medical, for example. I can't remember exactly who I rang, but try these:

GT Aviation - http://www.gtaviation.co.uk/-/?pn=20i1&pv=2

Global Flying - http://www.flightdeckrecruitment.com/globalflying.asp

Traffords Insurance - http://www.traffords-insurance.co.uk/

Unicover - http://www.unicoverinsurance.com/aviation.htm

Hall and Clark - http://www.hallandclarke.co.uk/aviation_insurance.htm

Houlder - http://www.houlder.co.uk/aviation/aviation.html

I guess its like car insurance - shop around and read the small print!

My thanks to Charlie Charlie for the above information

will be calling them on tuesday

Had a quick look and was unable to find the fine print on any of the above mentioned homepages.

Does the insurance normally pay out the same if you lose your JAR medical but continue to fly commercially on your FAA medical?

[Bravo 99 (AJB)]

Martin

I have not yet contacted them but tommorow when i am back at work (and dont have two boys crawling over the PC) i will speak to them and come back to you with further info.

license insurance

Anyone with insurance information if the license is lost?
Thx

[Thomas coupling]

Can you expand on that?

[Sandiron]

I guess Vonkluffen is talking about Loss of Licence insurance. This is a policy which pays a lump sum if you lose your license through any medical problem. There's also a temporary benefit, but it's the lump sum that most drivers are interested in. It's easy, and inexpensive, while you're young and gets progressively more difficult, and more expensive, as you get older. If you work for a major operator, there may be a group scheme in place. This will often include automatic renewal so you don't need to reapply every year. Safety in numbers! You should look for a specialist aviation insurance broker in your country, who should be able to give you information and get quotations. Alternatively, search through the web.
