I agree with Tim that insurance is a relative bargain. Years ago I put a 16 year
old son on a Socata Tampico at 60K/1M for less money than putting him in a
beater truck that was liability only.
I have also viscerally learned that you don't necessarily want the cheapest quote.
Having gone through the ringer on a claim that some thought was a "grey"
area, there is nothing more expensive than cheap insurance.
Mine is through Gallagher with AIG which are both known and battle tested quantities
with me and came to $1840 plus another $125 for a full Mexican rider for
Samaritan trips. I've got 25+K flight time, with about 325 in type. I also,
of course, had a recent claim (some may have read about :) )which doesn't seem
to have affected my rating. I'm committed to those two for as long as they'll
underwrite me.
A year ago, on a lark, I send in the postcard for the "direct" insure company and
their quote was north of 4K. I don't know why they even bother to market to
the expo market. Their own rep told me on the phone that they aren't competitive
because they don't really want experimental business.

| Subject: | Re: Eclipse travel |
My wife and I are planning on staying around Boise and then flying up to
Stanlely Idaho to see the eclipse, it's at 11:30 AM, so that leaves plenty
of time to get up and get there before the main event.
Stanley is also a nice open valley so there aren't any issues with the sun
being blocked.
