In a previous article, (Captain Wubba) said:
insurance numbers I got were somewhat shocking. One place I called
wouldn't underwrite twins at all anymore, and one other quoted me
$7400 a year for $80k hull and $500k liability.

Our club was looking at getting an Aztruck or Seneca, and even though the
club is nearly 50 years old and hasn't had an insurance claim except for
wind storm damage in 30 years, every insurance company we contacted said
no way, not for any price. 3 members of the club formed their own
partnership to buy a Seneca instead - one of them is a CFII-MEI, and so
he's trying to get insurance that will let him instruct in it, but not
having much luck.

My insurance company says my rates will go up 5 times the current
amount if I teach in my plane. That's without solo, dual only. I can
only give instruction to those named on the policy (i.e. my partner).
Its too bad too since there aren't many high end trainers out there.
