Pix... the better question is,
"What are the minimum insurance requirements?"


Ridiculous, that's what they are!

A friend of mine, a CFII with lots of time in trikes, bought a Cessna
140 a couple of years ago.

His insurance co. requried 20 (twenty) hours of dual before they'd
insure him.

In the old days, students cusomarily soloed a J-3 Cub in 8 hours or
less!

And in 1949, when I arrived at Pensacola, the Navy was putting kids
who had never been in an airplane in an SNJ, and soloing them in 12
hours.
