Need advice on handling airplane damage

Call AOPA Legal and ask them about filing a report. You *do* have
the legal option as an AOPA member, right?


You *are* an AOPA member, right?

Do not discuss in this newsgroup the events that caused, appear to
have caused, or are the result of any action that your partner took.
Asking about how to deal with the insurance is fine. Anything that
involves the FAA or can involve the FAA should not be discussed in
public.

Didn't we have this discussion a couple months ago?

Typical lawyer. This type of accident happens every day. What happens
with the FAA is standard. Assuming the plane was in annual and your
partner had a medical the process goes very quickly. The FAA will
almost certainly require your partner to take a quick checkride covering
just the events surrounding the accident, so basically he'll go around
the patch a few times. Having an AOPA legal plan won't help one iota in
this situation.

4. Either way, you'll have to pay someone to ferry it to a shop
for repairs. Again, the insurance company and/or the repair shop
will have someone they use all the time for this. They'll take
care of getting the paperwork done and a ferry permit.

Blanche,

If (for some reason) the insurance company will not pay to have the
plane ferried to a shop, you don't necessarily have to pay someone
else to do it. Assuming it's flyable and eligible for a ferry permit,
the owner can ferry it. I've done it several times.

Huh? I'm not a lawyer, and I don't have a job, and I think I
missed the joke someplace...ah well, let me attribute it to
hunger --missed lunch and trying to make dinner now.
