I have written a lot in the past year about the availability of a very fairly priced AD&D product from a company that covers everything from simple AD&D to war risk for civilian contractors working in Afghanistan. The company that offers the coverage is...

I was running some quotes for a client of mine a few days ago, a husband and wife private pilot team. They had inquired through AOPA, Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, for group coverage and had run into several issues. Probably the most troublesome was that...

It hasn’t been that long since admitting that you were a student pilot or a flight instructor on a life insurance application was, well, might as well have been an admission that you were a bush pilot or crop duster. Most companies weren’t and actually...
