I didn't realize people were paying so much. I assume (I know don't assume) the biggest cost issue is flight time. Avemco uses some combination of complex, PIC, and time in type, etc to figure your "experience". I had about 3000 hr. total time (2200 PIC) most in complex aircraft. Flight time however is not always a good indicator of experience (including insurance rates of skill). B-52 time vs Fighter time have a wide range of meaning depending on who you're talking to. My rate break down was: $432 Bodily Injury @ 100,000/1,000,000/1,000,000 $1333 In Flight @$70,000/$300/$300 with the following endorsements: TX0001, 102701, 120201, 103701, 127101 This was quoted at a $1000 deductible. $500 (or thereabouts) of the deductible is covered by the EAA. I always ask Avemco what flight milestone will attain the next price break. They now say I'm getting the lowest rate. Their combination formula totals in excess of 5000 (pts I guess) for my background. Two other known discounts that I believe I'm getting are the 3 tech counselor visits (10%) and the flight advisor program (10%). These obviously don't add up to our differences however. As a reminder to others, the 10% discount for tech counselor visits is good for the life of the airframe if I recall correctly. For me this was an additional future sale carrot albeit small. Finally, I am aware that rates were recently increased (about 14%). I was told that since they had already sent me my bill I'd be spared the increase till next year.
