But that figure might be different for other airplanes (say, hi

From what I have observed with many students/owners, insurance reductions
for any type of ratings or recurrent training are usually negligible.

What happens instead is that for certain combinations of airplane and pilot
experience, the insurers simply refuse to write the policies at all unless
the pilots get an instrument rating or undergo recurrent training.

As the insurance market tightens, one effect is that insurers have also
begun requiring recurrent training on more and more airplanes. This does
not mean that these pilots get a discount for their recurrent training; the
training simply becomes a condition of insurance.
