Agreed Richard. All one has to do is check the hull premiums on a Pilatus or Lear to see that. Higher value, higher premium. The bigger COST to the insurance company remains medical/death payouts Not only does a Lear hold more people than say, a C140, and costs a lot more, when it crashes lots more stuff (and people) are likely to get broken. It didn't really surprise me when looking at NTSB reports, trying to find out how people crashed C140s, so I didn't do something similar and crash mine after I bought it was that there were so few injury accidents. If you crash slowly, you're less likely to be hurt. Crash in a Lear and for many types of crashes, you'll probably kill or seriously injure everyone on board. This makes the 'fixing people' bit rather more expensive. -- Dylan Smith, Castletown, Isle of Man Flying: http://www.dylansmith.net Frontier Elite Universe: http://www.alioth.net "Maintain thine airspeed, lest the ground come up and smite thee" |
