That's a terrible quote. When I bought my Bo in the summer of 05 I had
zero retract time. About 1100 hours total, almost all in my 182. Hull
value $90K. Premium was $2800 for the same limits as you except the
medical payments are either $3K or $5K, I forget. Last year the premium
was $2300. This year I expect it will be less then $2K especially since
I won't forget to ask to have it insured for four seats only this time.- Hide quoted text -



By the way Newps, I think you got a great deal on your policy. Most
low-rectract time pilots usually take it in the shorts on their first
retract policy.

And I am insured with Avemco. When I shopped around I got a slightly
lower quote with the company I had with the 182, Global. They were
about $100 cheaper but wanted 25 hours with an instructor. I told him
he was nuts and went with Avemco who only wanted 10 hours.



Last year at a backcountry strip, I met a guy selling a pristine '61
210 with a new engine and interior for just under $60K.


Struts, gear doors and an IO-470. What the hells the point?


He said he'd
had it on the market for 6 months, but none of the interested buyers
could get a reasonable insurance rate, so he had to keep lowering the
price. I think there's something that insurance companies don't like
about the 210 / Newbie retract pilot combo.

I have a friend with a Turbine P210. Same deal with those, you can't
give them away. You going to make Schafer third weekend in July?

It's looking like I will make it this year. I'll probably arrive on Sat.
morning.

Good, look for the yellow and white V tail and stop by and say hi. We
always arrive Thursday morning as then we get a full day with the place
to ourselves.
