In all the excitement and anticipation of sliding into the cockpit of that dream aircraft rental, stop for a moment to make sure that all the paperwork is in order. No, not the preflight check, although that is of course critical too.
When renting an aircraft, one of the important details that can too easily be overlooked is obtaining renter’s insurance otherwise known as non-owned aircraft insurance.
Without carrying the right amount of aircraft renter’s insurance, a pilot is leaving themselves open to the potential for all sorts of problems and liabilities if something goes wrong during the flight.
Thankfully once you know why renter’s insurance is important, how much you need, what it covers, and how to navigate all the new acronyms of the renter’s insurance world, you can quickly get the coverage you need and get on with having fun in your rental.
