Who you guys got insurance with?

I been using First Flight liability only. Got a quote yday of 500+-. Have to join the USUA too and that about 35 more.Checked with this BMI outfit and same coverage quoted at 300. Big difference. Around here that'll buy lunch for a couple months.

I have mine with Avemco, liability only and since I am in Phase 1, it only covers me and no passengers. I don't have the exact amount but it was around 340 a year. 

I have 350 hrs total time, IFR rated, and 6 hours of dual in the 750 from Buzzy.

My broker Wenk Insurance in Illinois

Very good prices

check them out

Falcon Insurance Agency out of Kerrville TX. Policy is with Global Aerospace, full hull and liability. They have done a good job and the pricing has been fair.

Update: My insurance renewal quotes are going through the roof. They were up 50% last year for same coverage, (Liability and hull) and are up another $600 this year for the same coverage. 3 years ago I renewed for a $988 annual premium, just got one for $2116. No claims ever, no incidents, not even a ticket driving my car. I’ve got $1 mil liability and $55K hull value insured on a 2012 CH750 with a Continental engine, averaging approx. 100 hrs/yr and hangared Inside at a County Airport. This is getting a bit ridiculous. Anyone else getting hosed like this?

Call Coley-Christian in Memphis, TN. They are a broker, and shopped around and just renewed me today with AIG for the same price I paid as last year, no cost increase.  

My broker is Tracy Ferguson at Coley-Christian in Memphis.  My 2012 Zenith STOL 750 has 65K hull and 1 million liability.  Just renewed at $1396 with AIG ($149 increase from last year). I have nearly 3000 hrs and IFR rated (not current).  I had one claim for hangar rash on my 206 many years ago and received excellent service.  No in-motion claims since.

Jimmy, same deal for me!  Approx $500 increase (up to $2000) with no coverage while on floats or skis.  Thinking I'm dropping hull...

I had my liability only insurance through Falcon for many years with a decent price and no claims to speak of. Over the first few years, my premium steadily went down, then stabilized for several years.  The last two years saw my premiums going up past a 50% increase so I changed providers.  I asked for a quote from Gallagher Insurance Co. (no relation) and got my premium back down to where it was two years ago.

Thanks for all the replies, I'm going shopping. Will report back with what I find.

I shopped, I found what I was looking for.

Two years ago, $55K hull and $1 mil liability on my 750 ran $978/yr. It went up to $1490 last year. This year, it went to $2050. That was through Falcon Insurance and the EEA program. I had been with Falcon, claim free, for 12 years. Too much for me, I went shopping. 

Hooked up with Scott "Sky" Smith Insurance out of Iowa, got the same limits as above for $1390. Coverage is through IAT Insurance. Spoke with Scott himself, which was nice in this automated, digital, & impersonal day and age.
