Expert Guidance for Complex Aviation Scenarios
We go beyond standard coverage to help clients understand and mitigate nuanced aviation risks. Here are a few key insights:
- Charter Flights: Always request a certificate of insurance naming your entity (including officers, directors, and employees) as additional insured. Ensure breach of warranty and waiver of subrogation clauses are included, with a minimum 30-day notice of cancellation or material change.
- Fixed Base Operations (FBOs): Aviation coverage typically ends at the airside gate or FBO entrance. Displays of vehicles or art in lobbies may trigger Auto Liability and Commercial General Liability (CGL) exposures.
- Non-Owned Aircraft & Drone Use: If you operate or ride in aircraft or drones you don’t own, you need coverage. Corporate and personal non-owned policies are available with limits up to $100 million.
- Fractional Ownership Risks: Charter operators who fall behind on training or maintenance may void primary policies. Contingent liability coverage can protect fractional owners from exposure.
- UAV/UAS Coverage: These policies are not adapted from standard CGL forms. They are written by A to A++ rated aviation insurers using specialized aerospace policy forms to cover aerial photography, surveillance, law enforcement, agriculture, and more.
