that said, with increasingly restrictive insurance requirements, this
might very well become a thing of the past,


Actually, I have seen nothing change on this. My insurance covers me
equally if I am flying my own plane or any other aircraft that I am
legally permitted to fly.

While much of the bogus additional currency rules are blamed on
insurance, most of it is stuff that the flight schools make up for
their own benefit.


Just renewed my policy and it went from named pilot to a very liberal open
pilot policy without me asking. Darn liberals are everywhere. :-
