Flying South? Add Insurance To Your Preflight Checklist

Posted on January 22, 2015 by mwflyer

by Jenny Estes

It’s the time of year when many pilots fly south to warmer climates, often to other countries. If you’re preparing to leave the country in your plane, you’re bound to have plenty of checklists to complete before leaving. Be sure to include in your checklist a review of your aircraft insurance policy to make sure you have coverage in a foreign country, and to include a copy in your plane.

Some countries will not let you enter their borders without proof of insurance. If you’re unsure of your foreign coverage or are planning a trip, contact your insurance representative or me, Jenny Estes, manager of light aircraft sales, at NationAir Aviation Insurance at Spirit of St. Louis Airport: 877-475-5860 or direct 636-449-2813 (jestes@nationair.com).
