I checked today and I have some answers.

The coverage does include rentals up to 50k. Even if youe hull on your own glider may be a lot less, you can go to an FBO and rent a beater Grob and be covered. If you rent a new ASK 21 you will only be covered up to 50K, or the value of your hull, which ever is higher.

The underwriter is Starr Aviation, made up in part by a bunch of folks that split off from AIG. The policy is virtually the same I have been told.

BTW, it is possible that the coverage on glider rentals may extend to powered aircraft rentals. The AOPA broker is looking into that, as well as coverage options for glider schools and clubs.

The policy can be amended to allow for winter storage, like the SSA program..

I have decided to take what ammounts to a 32% saving and go with the AOPA. It is a bit of a risk, if I go back to Costello they will raise my rates 25% more than what I WAS paying under the SSA program...
