Interesting notes off AVweb.com
"General aviation needs more good instructors, Avemco President Jim Lauerman said on Friday at Sun 'n Fun, but insurance costs have been a barrier for many experienced owner/pilots who have earned a CFI ticket and might like to teach on an occasional basis. Now Avemco is offering customized liability coverage that will make it possible for those CFIs to take on students, Lauerman said. He also said that Avemco is analyzing data from its light sport aicraft coverage, and is passing on information to the LSA community to help improve training. "We've found that the light wing-loading of LSAs requires a greater emphasis on low-speed directional control," he said. Once the data analysis is complete, a few months from now, he expects it will lead to differentiation in the LSA insurance market. "We've been lumping them all together," Lauerman said, "but will end up with probably three different categories of LSA."
The new policy for CFI's who would like to teach(including solo) in their own aircraft. Premium 1/2 to 1/3 of normal commercial/fbo policy.
