Life Insurance Dilema
Lets hope the same mistake does not occur using the altimeter.
Most life insurance policies have exclusions or addtional charges for high risk activities, including sky diving and scuba diving. Their actuaries know how to price risk.

Life Insurance Dilema
If I read my altimeter as 10,000,000 ft when it's really only 1,000,000
feet, I'll have other issues to deal with. It sounds to me like their actuaries never priced the risk, so they price it out of the market. "Skylune" wrote in message lkaboutaviation.com...

I drive a motorcycle to the airport to go flying somewhere to go diving... I wonder if that would make their underwriters nervous...

How do you carry all of your scuba gear on the bike? Don't forget to wait 24 hours after diving to fly.

Probably no more than my back country skiing in Maine. Check the
provisions of the so-called "avaiation friendly" policies with one you can get if you are not a GA pilot.
