Thanks for all the replies. With information received I will go with Experimental-amateur

| Subject: | How to Pre-Flight your Zenith by Gus Warren |
Friends,
>From the Zenith eMail:
Pre-Flighting Your Aircraft: A&P mechanic / pilot Gus Warren will discuss and show
you how to thoroughly pre-flight your Zenith aircraft before every flight,
with an actual inspection of a completed aircraft. Several pre-flight classes
will be scheduled during the day (using various Zenith aircraft models). 9:00
am and 1:00 pm one-hour sessions are planned.
And from William Wynne:
Gus Warren will be giving forums at the [Zenith] event as an official guest of
the Factory. He has one forum on Friday and two on Saturday. At the event he
will also be our rep. [ on site also. We are sending him with Conversion and
Installation Manuals, DVD's and One complete set of Gold Parts. Gus is the high
time Corvair/601 Pilot in the world and the only person who has flown both
a 601 and 701 on Corvair power. He has worked on 8 or 9 different Zeniths,
and flown them on long cross countries. Anyone interested in the combination
could have any question answered in person by Gus at the open house More details
are on the Zenith website.
Five weeks ago, on our webpage I wrote: " Few people know that the massive international
financial house AIG is behind almost all aviation insurance. If you
watch BBC world news, you will learn two things; the value of the Euro is going
to keep the price of Rotaxes astronomically high, and AIG has taken a huge
beating lately."
Today's news makes my crystal ball look pretty good. I am interested to know what
this will do to aviation insurance rates. The most likely affect will be
to make high risk planes much more difficult to get full coverage for. It will
likely have much less effect on approved LSA combinations. And, it will have
no effect on homebuilders who choose to fly without insurance. We never had
aircraft insurance on our Pietenpol, but always had it on our 601, which made
me a lot more comfortable about flying all the demo flights we did. Over the
years we have had a number of planes insured and paid a lot of premiums, but
have never filed a claim of any kind. This may seem like a bad deal, but it
isn't.
In 2001 I had made a single $157 payment on my new Blue Cross policy. They paid
out something like 5,800 times this To Tampa General Hospital after my accident.
Getting your money's worth out of your insurance is far worse than never
filing a claim
Thank you.
