I called my insurance carrier and added him to my policy by name - it was a no-brainer - he had thousands of hours in RVs - I had ten - putting him on my policy added not a cent to the premium - first flight was routine and without incident - I took over from there - just be sure whoever is doing the first flight for you is a cool head - well experienced in RVs - call your insurance carrier - they'll want all sorts of info - total hours, hours in RVs - ratings - etc - add him/her to your policy by name - it's done all the time - not a big deal at all - good luck with the first flight - hope you get your medical back soon Cheers, Dan Bergeron RV-7A - N307TB 320 hours since first flight on 8/4/09 On Mon, Jul 9, 2012 at 10:00 AM, jfogarty tds.net wrote: > Joe, Call your agent and check on higher limits of liability insurance, > also, make sure they understand that it is someone other than you flying > off the first 40 hours.

I assume I tape up one static port and then attach ... what to the other one? How do I temporarily bond a vinyl tube to a static port with no leaks?
