Insurance

• A large part of your club dues pays for Insurance coverage, which covers both our aircraft and a member's liability for negligence. As with all flying insurance there are qualification requirements, limitations, and exclusions. Our policy usually has limitations of one million per accident; one hundred thousand per person; and, twenty-five thousand per family member. However, coverage may be voided by various circumstances including the violation of CFRs. A copy of the Club's current insurance policy and limitations is kept each aircraft. It is up to each individual member to ensure that each of his flights is such that our Insurance coverage is in effect.

  Knoxville Flyers Inc. by-laws require members to be responsible for the club insurance deductible in the event of any damage caused in the use of club aircraft.
