Emerging aircraft, new rules, & an appetite for it all

When Rules Change, We’re Ready


Broad Appetite • Hull Liability up to $5M • Aircraft Liability up to $10M

 

Aviation doesn’t stand still. New rules, new technology and new kinds of aircraft open new opportunities in aviation, and create new coverage needs. Brokers need a carrier that’s ready for it all.

CASE IN POINT: MOSAIC

In July, the FAA’s Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification (MOSAIC) rule removed the old weight cap on light-sport aircraft, opening the door to a broader range of new designs, like gyroplanes and light sport aircraft. Combined with expanded sport pilot privileges, it put more aircraft within reach of more pilots, including many legacy trainers and, with an endorsement, retractable-gear models.

Kinsale’s Aviation Division was ready

Experimental builds, emerging technology, new aircraft and pilots in transition are where our team shines. When brokers started bringing us newly eligible airplanes, kit manufacturers, and gyroplanes—and the pilots who wanted to fly them—we had real solutions to offer from day one.
