Sure they will. I have been sued by insurance companies twice. I won both
times. The problem is most people cave in because they don't take the time to actually figure out the law. Only a moron lets himself be conquered by an insurance company. One time it would of been cheaper to settle. I learned from that and the next time they paid. I go for the juggler right from the start. Let them know you will fight to the end. Let me know how the FBO's insurance can come after you. I thought the reason they had it was exactly for that reason. Its sounds like you need to understand how things work. If I ask you for money it doesn't mean you owe it to me. Please don't call me a troll. I can only tell you my experiences. I had a decent size company and dealing with insurance is one of the biggest expenses. You have workers comp, health, product liability, building insurance, car insurance, death and I am sure I am forgetting a few. I also was not asking any question just stating my opinion and that's all it is my opinion. If you have never owned your own company you have no way of knowing how things work. I can also tell you this you can be dead right and still lose in court or vice a versa it all comes down to the judge. "Barney Rubble" wrote in message ... I'm out of this debate, I smell a troll . Aluckyguess - go and lookup what subjugation actually means, and then come back asking sensible, well informed questions. The insurance company underwriting the FBO's plane WILL come after you in most cases. - Barney "Aluckyguess" wrote in message ... "Barney Rubble" wrote in message ... Do you really think the insurance co give a flying sh1t about "bad word of mouth"? Your'e making a mistake in believing the insurance company have any morals or scruples. I know of someone who did not have renters insurance, landed short, took out some runwany end identifier lights, prop strike, engine teardown and new landing gear. The costs were well north of $40K, and they came after that person for every penny. Had to sell car and house to pay it. He thought he was insured. To the OP, look at AOPA. I think I pay about $200 PA, for the basic deal. So no one had any insurance on the plane? Something doesnt sound right. The owner of the plane has some liabiltiy. Again it sounds like this guy needed a good lawyer. Sounds like the FBO didnt pay their policy they had no money and went after the pilot. - Barney "TaxSrv" wrote in message ... "Richard Kaplan" wrote: Has that ever happened in the case where an uninsured renter pilot with no money (orig poster) will be sued? Being low on cash is not the same as having zero assets or zero net worth and no anticipated future cashflow source. Agree there, but if someone does $5,000 damage to an airframe, that amount won't go far at all to pursue it to see if collection is even practically possible, much less establish the facts of the case. Can you answer my question about the ins co's business sense, for a mere $5K minus costs, spreading such ill will in the pilot community over the matter? Fred F. |
