Default Life Insurance Coverage in Experimental Aircraft?

It's Saturday, so I haven't had a chance to call my agent, but my wife
brought up a question that may nix me building an airplane.

If I die in my homebuilt aircraft, does my life insurance pay out? My
policy covers me if I pilot an aircraft, but for the life of me I have no
idea if there's an assumption / stipulation that it applies only to
type-certificated aircraft.


Depends on the policy. My personal policy doesn't exclude flying in
experimental aircraft (I made that a primary point when purchasing), but my work
one does if the plane isn't company-owned.
