Do you renters feel the need to pick up supplemental insurance? If
so who did you use and how much did it cost you?

Thanks for the timely thread. Our son, Joe, also a newly-minted
pilot, is going through this debate as well.

Mary and I carried renter's insurance before we owned our plane. AOPA
is currently offering it for "as low as $90" per year -- which is
about what it cost me, 14 years ago. (It's very cheap, considering
the potential cost of a claim.)

Since Joe is a minor, I presume the insurance companies would come
after ME in the event of an accident that Joe caused -- so it's in my
best interest to make sure he's fully covered...

Yes it is and that $90 per year is for liability only. The unowned hull
coverage is more...Lots more.
