Insurance Kills many if not most attempts to rent personal aircraft
out. Unless you can fly the airplane at least 300 hours a year it probably won't even break even. Really the only options a 1. Pay the Insurance and probably lose money at it when you can't rent the airplane out an Average of 6 hours per week need to pay for the insurance. 2. Charge so much that almost no one will rent the airplane. 3. Decide if you could take a $20,000 hit if the 1st person you rent it to Totals it, If you can, then set some of the rental fee aside to replace/repair the airplane if it does eventually get damaged. (Self Insurance). At the current insurance rates if you have no claims the, you may have set enough money aside after about 5-7 years to pay for a replacement airplane. a. requiring renter insurance will reduce you risk but not eliminate it., This will significantly reduce the number of potental renters. b. you will have to/want to buy liability insurance, it is relatively econimical and will protect you if the airplane injures someone or damages other property. c. there is no such thing as CFI Hull insurance for non-owned airplanes, at least that I have found. Please let me know if you find it. 4. The FBO leaseback option would reduce the insurance rate some, but the plane is still going to have to fly a lot to make it worthwhile. 5. I am sure there are some other options. Brian CFIIG/ASEL |

There is CFI "hull" insurance. However, like renter's insurance, it
only pays when the CFI is at fault. https://www.aopaia.com/cfi_insurance3.cfm Optional Coverage - Limit of Liability (Physical Damage to non-owned aircraft): Per Occurrence Annual Premium No Coverage 0 5,000 125 10,000 175 20,000 250 40,000 450 60,000 600 80,000 775 100,000 975 150,000 1,425 |
