Kyle Communications Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Only good experience with QBE at this stage Gareth...couldnt ask for better service I got mine through a broker but it is QBE who is the insurer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaba-who Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I'd agree with Kyle C. I have nothing but good things to say about QBE I pranged a plane in 2009. Fixed and flying again in 3 months. All paid without problem complaint or question by QBE. But if I can give any advice - go through a broker. They can get better deals, get clauses and extras thrown in. And can advise you on pitfalls etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Kev Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 So roughly, how do things pan out with: A newby and taildragger Lightwing; or A newby and taildragger scratch- built? Cheers Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDQDI Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Tail draggers bump it up and obviously pilot hours make a big difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDQDI Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 We went with allianze through a broker. QBE was way too expensive I'm very low hours and its a tail dragger but QBE was 3 thousand more expensive than allianz and didn't want to cover as much so was a very easy choice to make 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
