Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Corvair Pietenpol Insurance Question I have insurance with AOPA and that is thru Global Aerospace. The problem with insurance companies is the restrict to the owner as the insured pilot. Others have to be approved. They don't allow you to add on too many pilots or they will call you a club. I dropped my hull ins and just kept liability. That saves quite a bit.
