I'm not sure what you mean by "commercial insurance". From your
description this is not a commercial operation and you are not even a
required crewmember. I don't see why the insurance company even needs to
know that you exist at all.

Quite so. My situation is similar and our companies insurance did't flinch
when they started having a co-pilot along (a JetProp and a Citation CJ).

Well, I tried calling a couple aviation insurance agencies myself. One
said they couldn't give me a number until I had a specific aircraft
they could run, and when asked about a ballpark figures, they said 'it
all depends', which wasn't really helpful. The other place I called
doesn't do commercial insurance anymore. So I was just joping somebody
here had some experience in this area without me having to call a
dozen different agencies.

Cheers,

Hello. I'm a Commercial Pilot with single engine, multi engine, and
instrument ratings. I have a little less than 600 hours total time,
and only about 20 multi. I have been approached about a possible
position on the West Coast that would be a combination IT staffer
and
co-pilot for a King Air 200 the company is going to buy. I know the
owner of the company, and it is pretty solid that I could have the
job
if I want it.

My question is about insurance. Now the owner would send me to
training for a type rating in the King Air, but will an insurance
company have a major problem, if the captain is an ATP with a ton of
King Air time? Will they charge a fortune because of my limited
experience? Do they care about the hours the right-seater has? While
they are only looking at the King Air for now, would the insurance
company care about the co-pilot time if it were a Citation? Anybody
who could shed some light on this, or who has experience in this
would
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Cap
