OK, this is going to be a rather long post since I have quite a few
question and they are all over the bloody map here. I know most of you
have gone through this sometime and while I do expect I'm not
necessarily going to hear what I want, I'll definitely hear mostly what
I need..

Also, did anyone have issues with their life-insurance? I believe mine
can be cancelled if I do "extreme" sports (flying is listed here, as is
parachuting)... Funny thing is that this is done regardless of whether
I die flying (or practicing these sports) or not. So, on that side, is
there a pilot-friendly or pilot group insurance available to pilots?


- SOME life insurance companies charge higher rates (or refuse) to insure
pilots.
- Some insurance companies ASK it you are a pilot (or are in training),
some do not care.
- Some insurance companies do(or can) NOT raise rates for EXISTING policy
holders who take up piloting during the term of a policy. They may (or
not, at their option) raise the rates on additional coverage purchased
after your initial policy.
- You MAY be advised to purchase all or most of your expected life
insurance needs BEFORE you begin pilot training.
- YMMV
- Talk to several agents and brokers and do NOT falsify any applications.


My life insurance company had no restrictions or increased prices. They did
want to know however. New York Life.
