Rated on who is flying
Pilot hours, ratings and recency carry more weight than almost anything else in the file — this is not a class-code business.
Aviation
Private aircraft, charter, flight schools, drones and airport operations.
Cennairus is a licensed wholesale insurance broker: retail agents send us the accounts their own markets cannot place, stay the agent of record, and we take each account to the markets on our panel of 145 carriers that write it. Aviation insurance is two covers moving together: hull, for physical damage to the aircraft in flight, taxiing or parked, and liability. Underwriting looks hard at the pilot, from total hours to hours in type and recent flying, and hangars and airport premises are underwritten apart from the in-flight risk. Cennairus shops it across the panel.

Pilot hours, ratings and recency carry more weight than almost anything else in the file — this is not a class-code business.
Physical damage to the aircraft and the liability that follows an incident, quoted from one submission.
Hangars, FBOs and airport premises are underwritten apart from the in-flight risk, not folded into it.
Aircraft make, model, hours and pilot logs are usually enough to start — no separate application built from scratch.
Placed with underwriters who rate on hours, ratings and type — not on a generic class code.
Aircraft physical damage and the liability that follows, from one submission.
Hangars, FBOs, flight schools and airport premises exposure.
Who buys it: private aircraft owners, individual and corporate; charter operators and air taxi services; flight schools and flight instructors; airports, fbos and hangar operators; aerial application and agricultural flying; drone and unmanned aircraft operations.
An aircraft sitting in the hangar is still on risk — hull coverage does not wait for takeoff.
Aviation losses correlate heavily with pilot experience — total hours, hours in type, and how recently the pilot has flown.
Usually not for the flying itself.
Hull is physical damage to the aircraft — in flight, taxiing, or parked.
Aircraft make, model and use — owner-flown, charter, instruction — pilot names, hours and ratings, and hangar location.
One appointment puts the whole panel behind your agency: every line we place, the programs, the producers who work the hard accounts, and your commission settled to your.
