Question What are you paying for insurance?

PaulRX.
Here's my situation. Three years ago I purchased a 1965 C337. I had a total of 900 hrs TT, With 200 hrs commercial helicopter time. NO Complex, NO twin, 100 hrs. high performance. I was quoted about $2200, no hull. BUT I was only covered while flying with my CFI/MEI and NOT flying solo! Last year I covered the plane with $35,000 hull, new premium is $2500. The agent is Hoxton.com in WV. Also I'm 68 years old and I do my own maintenance.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

Insurance

Last year I paid $4200 for insurance. I have more than 3400 hours in twins. 2800 hours in my current P337G. I had no incidences and now because I turned 80 years old last December, they require that I have a copilot at all times rated in my aircraft. That is now forcing me to sell my plane. So if anyone is interested in a well maintain plane please contact me. 269-275-6613 or jerrydesantis@hotmail.com. BTW, if I wanted to fly fix gear single engine plane I can get insurance. So for you pilots in the early 70's be aware what the insurance companies are doing.

Sorry to hear it, Jerry, same thing is happening around here. I plan on flying mine another 10 years, I will be 77. Might put a 100' pedestal on my property, and set my airplane on top of it. It will be 54 years old at that point.

Anybody flying without insurance?
