Insuring a Sonerai

[Gorkypickeral]

I’m having trouble finding an insurance company who will insure a Sonerai. Any recommendation? Thanks

I insured my IIL with Avemco for 30+ years. I only carried liability insurance. I self-insured the hull.

Same. Avemco Liability only.

I wouldn't even ask for a quote until you feel confident you can truthfully answer their currency requirement questions in the affirmative. This puts you in the catch-22 conundrum of needing to get 10hrs without any realistic way of doing it except to go do it uninsured and don't bend it.

I got ready to fly the Sonerai by getting some time flying an Aeronca Champ from the back seat. A whole bunch of takeoffs and landings. Got comfortable slipping it to the runway so I could see around the CFI sitting in the front seat. Then, I flew the Sonerai for 10 hours solo, before I called the insurance company for a quote. Not the best way to do it. But, it got done.

I'm uninsured at the moment because I'm not flying but Falcon Insurance in Kerrville, TX, has always beaten Avemco's rate for me.

I had mine through Aviaton Marine in Oakland, Ca.

I used Falcon - liability only.
