EAA Aircraft Insurance Plan Improves
Most Auto Conversions, Non-Type Certificated Aircraft Engines

Now Covered

Responding to the ever-diversifying needs of its members, EAA announced
a major enhancement to the EAA Aircraft Insurance Plan this week.
Effective immediately, aircraft powered by most auto engine conversion
packages and non-type certificated aircraft engines are insurable under
the plan.

And...to add specific examples to what Perry quoted above:

"The success of the new EAA Aircraft Insurance Plan since its
introduction last summer has allowed us to work with Falcon Insurance
and Global Aerospace to develop coverage for additional homebuilt
models, specifically many of those powered by auto-engine conversions.
The majority of aircraft powered by Volkswagen, Subaru and Mazda engines
are now eligible for coverage, with a number of other engine models also
eligible.  This new coverage meets the needs of many EAA members, who
have used auto-engine conversions as an economical way to build an
aircraft but have struggled to find insurance for the aircraft when they
are completed."
