Top 10 Aviation Insurance Myths

Jim Lauerman, former president of Avemco Insurance Company, shares his top list of “aviation insurance myths” – those long-held beliefs about aircraft policies that are misunderstood by pilots, whether they own the airplane they fly, rent the airplane they fly or fly a friend’s airplane. These myths are specific to Avemco® in many cases, so it’s important to check with your insurer to see if they apply. Here’s what Lauerman has to say:

1 Myth: All policies are the same. “The reality is there are a lot of similarities in aviation policies, but there are some significant differences too,” Lauerman said. It’s important to realize that what may be true for an aviation insurance policyholder in one state may not be true for you in your state.

2 Myth: Policyholders can be on the hook for attorney costs. Avemco covers all costs to defend you, even if a plaintiff rejects an offer to settle and you’ve reached your limit of liability. This is generally true of all insurers, although some exceptions may exist. Lauerman suggests you check with your insurer if you are in doubt.

3 Myth: Insurance companies don’t want to pay claims. “There is an assumption that insurance companies are looking to avoid playing claims. In other words, the idea that they’ll take your premium but won’t pay your claim. The reality is the opposite.” But be careful about things that can bite you, like lying on your application or letting your coverage lapse.

4 Myth: If my buddy names me on his policy, I’m covered. In most cases you will be covered under your friend’s liability coverage if you’re flying his airplane and he’s named you on the policy. However, the owner and his insurance company retain the right to come after you under what’s known as subrogation, holding you responsible for a portion of the claim.

5 Myth: I installed new avionics so I should increase my hull insurance. Not all changes to an airplane increase its value. The prudent action is to contact your insurance company and report the changes. If the value of the aircraft has increased (using a commonly accepted valuation guide such as Vref) then yes, you should increase your hull insurance so you are properly insured.

6 Myth: I can save money by insuring my airplane only for the loan amount. Unlike cars, airplane insurance policies are based on “stated value.” That is, you and the insurance company come to an agreement when the policy is issued what the airplane is worth, that is the value listed on your policy data or declarations page. If you insured your airplane for too little, you could find you get a check for less than it’s really worth (market value) if it’s totaled.

7 Myth: If I violate the FARs, the insurance company won’t pay the claim. “The federal aviation regulations and Avemco insurance conditions have absolutely nothing to do with each other,” Lauerman said. The policy will pay unless the insurance conditions specifically were violated.

8 Myth: The FBOs policy covers me when I rent their airplanes. The reality, Lauerman said, is it’s unlikely you’ll be covered under a flight school’s insurance, even if they told you that you are. The school’s insurance company can come after you under subrogation and for loss of use as well as for liability exposure for injuries to people and damage to property other than the airplane you are flying.

9 Myth: My non-owner policy covers my friend when I fly his airplane. That’s only true if you were found negligent in the event of a mishap. If you fly your friend’s airplane and the engine fails through no fault of your own and the airplane is damaged, your non-owners policy won’t cover the damage.

10 Myth: I can pay my buddy for my use of his aircraft. Under most policies written by insurers other than Avemco, if you’re paying for anything more than gas and oil, you’re probably violating the commercial purpose exclusion of his policy, Lauerman says. Avemco offers this coverage; other insurers may as well, but it’s important to check.

Aircraft Maintenance Engineer: Job Description and Requirements

Essential Information

An aircraft maintenance engineer keeps aircraft in working order through maintenance, repairs and inspections. The Federal Aviation Administration regulates mechanical work on aircraft, and individuals entering this field must meet specific education, work experience and testing requirements. Aircraft maintenance engineers must be prepared to carefully follow FAA regulations and work long hours on emergency repairs.

Required Education	Completion of FAA-approved training program
Other Requirements	FAA certification
Projected Job Growth (2012-2022)	2%*
Median Salary (2013)	$55,980*

Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Job Description

An aircraft maintenance engineer is responsible for ensuring an aircraft operates properly and safely. A maintenance engineer may make repairs, troubleshoot problems, conduct inspections and make upgrades to aircrafts. Daily duties may include Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspections, scheduled maintenance, emergency repairs and recordkeeping of all maintenance activities (www.faa.gov).

Aircraft maintenance engineers work with equipment that includes specialized aviation tools, diagnostic equipment, computers, x-ray machines and power tools. Work conditions may involve working on ladders or scaffolds, long hours working on emergency repairs and managing other maintenance staff. Maintenance engineers must carefully observe all FAA rules and regulations when performing any job duty.

Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Requirements

The FAA sets requirements for mechanics working on aircrafts. These requirements state a person who is a U.S. citizen must:

• Be at least 18 years old
• Be proficient in the English language
• Have practical experience in working with power plants or airframes or graduate from a FAA-Approved Aviation Maintenance Technician School
• Pass written, oral and practical tests

If a person is not a U.S. citizen then they must meet all requirements for a citizen, plus:

• Show a need for a mechanic certificate
• Provide a valid passport
• Provide a statement from an employer stating types of maintenance duties handled and amount of time on job
• Provide a letter from a foreign airworthiness authority or International Civil Aviation Organization that validates experience
• Pay a document review fee

The FAA also requires that any work done to an aircraft must be done by or under the direct supervisor of a certified mechanic. FAA certification is available for power plant mechanics and airframe mechanics. FAA-approved degrees include the Associate of Occupational Science in Aviation Maintenance Technology, Associate of Applied Science in Aviation Maintenance Technology and Associate of Applied Science in Aviation Maintenance.

Most programs take about 20 months to complete and cover topics that prepare students to pass the required FAA tests. Another training option for active duty and reserve soldiers is becoming an aircraft maintenance engineer or avionic mechanic through a nine-week training program offered by the United States Army.

Employment Outlook and Salary Information

In 2013, aircraft mechanics and service technicians earned an annual median salary of $55,980, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The BLS also projected slower than average employment growth of 2%, for aircraft and avionics equipment mechanics and technicians, from 2012-2022.
