This insurance coverage protects Pilots, Certified Flight Instructors, Flight Students, Helicopter Pilots, and Airplane Pilots. Coverage is provided for use of non-owned aircraft.

Did you know that every time you offer your services outside of working hours you’re putting yourself at financial risk? High-cost flight injuries and property damage aren’t covered by traditional policies offered by your employer, agent, or a broker. An incident, claim, or lawsuit can suddenly find you underinsured, resulting in thousands of dollars out of your pocket. If you are employed in the aviation industry, or aviation is a passion and hobby you pursue, this insurance will protect you and your assets.

Pilots, flight instructors, and even students using someone else’s aircraft for school, pleasure, or a contract job are the ones who take on the liability—not the aircraft’s owner. Whether you fly purely for enjoyment or for business, Pilot Shield will provide you with peace of mind, knowing you have the right insurance in place to fill in gaps or exclusions.

We will customize coverage and limits, premium, deductibles, financing, and more. The total value of your policy works towards protecting you and providing a defense should an incident or claim occur. Our fully customized Pilot Shield Individual Liability coverage can give you the peace of mind and confidence to pursue your passion—and protect your financial assets.

If you require coverage for owned aircraft, please contact our underwriting department at 877-585-2853 or through our Customer Service form.
