GA bias in "general" insurance?

He's probably referring to the story that he was supposed to have turned in
his certificate for a drunk driving charge, IIRC.

John Denver was a very experienced pilot who goofed
flying an unfamiliar aircraft.

John Denver was not a certificated pilot at the time of his crash,
IIRC. Let alone an experienced one.

You recall incorrectly. From the NTSB report, Denver had nearly 3000
hours of flight time at the time of his fatal accident, holding a Private
Pilot certificate with airplane ratings for single- and multi-engine land,
single-engine sea, and gliders, as well as a Lear Jet type rating and an
instrument airplane rating.

I'm not sure what you consider "a certificated pilot" or "an experienced
one", but I'd say by most standards he was both.
