Hangar Insurance
County requires $1,000,000 liability insurance on hangar I bought and will be placing at the county airport. Any recommendations on an insurance company to get this coverage?

Re: Hangar Insurance
Are you sure they want separate insurance for your hangar? Most airports want proof of insurance for your aircraft with one million liability coverage.

Re: Hangar Insurance
I have hangar liability insurance as an add-on to my aircraft policy with Avemco. It’s not very expensive, maybe $300 a year. That’s cheap compared to the several thousand a year I was quoted as a standalone policy with a different insurer.

The 170 project is in my shop at home so the hangar will be empty unless I rent it out. Even though my plane isn't ready to go to the airport I couldn't pass up buying this Port-A-Port as I got a very good deal on it and purchasing it now allowed me to bypass the long waiting list for a rental hangar at the local airport.
Dave, I ran across FAQ #5 on this Avemco website. It says the minimum annual premium is $985. I ended up going with Falcon Aviation Insurance. They have discounts for EAA members and they also have a policy specifically for Port-A-Port hangars. Maybe that's because they seem to be indestructible as Richard's recent post indicates. You can find Falcon's application here. $322/year.DaveF wrote:I have hangar liability insurance as an add-on to my aircraft policy with Avemco. It’s not very expensive, maybe $300 a year.

The city only requires liability insurance so that's all I have.
