Pre-takeoff checklist
I'm now 4h post solo, and this week I do my first "small xc" from KSYR to KFZY (I.e. from big base airport to small training airport where we've done 90% of training).
I got thinking about student pilot insurance - liability primarily, after we spent part of last lesson doing power outs over farmer fields. The whole "the insurance co owns the plane now" scenario.
I know there is student pilot coverage available. Now that I won't have an instructor with me all the time, I think I might want some of this. Even a relatively minor screw up like hitting a taxiway light or a hard landing might have consequences.
Looking for the best place to buy, and also what sort of things to consider in the policy as a rule of thumb? Price range others are paying? I am a member of EAA, and also going to join AOPA, so if either of those two are the best deal chime in. Thanks everyone!
Edit:
Anyone ever deal with these guys?
