Van's RV Aircraft Insurance
Van’s RV Aircraft Insurance
Founded by Richard “Van” VanGrunsven in 1973, Van’s Aircraft, an American kit aircraft manufacturer, is most famous for its RV Aircraft series, one of the most popular homebuilt aircraft around. In fact, by the end of 2012, 8,000 RV kits had been completed and flown, with thousands more still under construction.
RV Aircraft Series
It all started with the RV-1 in 1965, when VanGrunsven modified the Stots SA-3 Playboy with a 125hp Lycoming engine. He also modified the wings, cowling and fuselage. A sailplane, the RV-2 prototype soon followed.
The first RV available for sale was the RV-3. It was single seat and renowned for its climb rate. Making room for a passenger, the RV-4 followed as a two seat tandem version of the RV-3. As the demand for RVs grew, more models were produced. The RV-5 went back to a single seat whereas the RV-6 introduced 2 seats side by side. The RV-7, 8 and 9 were made as improved versions of earlier RV models.
The first flight of the RV-10 prototype was in 2003. Many more were quickly built as pilots discovered its excellent performance and ability to carry four adults and 60 pounds of baggage.
As the RV-11 motorglider is still in the development phase, the RV-12 and 14 have hit the market. The RV-12 is Van’s Aircraft first Light Sport Aircraft, featuring wings that can be easily removed in about five minutes. Years of aircraft experience helped create the RV-14 that debuted in 2012. Van’s Aircraft boasted a quicker build time for this model and 193mph cruise speed.
Builder’s Risk Insurance
Nothing beats the feeling of someday flying an aircraft that you built yourself. But building an aircraft is also a lot of work, requiring both time and dedication. And between the hours of hard work and tough choices you will have to make, insurance coverage typically gets forgotten or ignored. But what happens if disaster strikes mid-build?
“As a friend of many aircraft builders and as a homebuilt owner myself, I can only imagine the devastation of losing an aircraft mid-build,” said Jon Harden, president and founder of Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR). “Our affordable program is worth it just for the peace of mind.”

Piper Cub Insurance Offered by AIR
Piper Cub Insurance
A small yellow plane soars through the sky and is
immediately spotted as the beloved Piper Cub.
The Cub is a basic, no-frills aircraft that has
dominated the marketplace because it is extremely reliable and versatile.
It
has excellent low speed manners and it can take off and land where other planes
cannot.
The Cub’s big brother, the Super Cub is considered by many as the ultimate back country airplane.
The Piper J-3 Cub was first introduced to the public in the late 1930s. This high-wing two-seater quickly became the
top seller in the private
plane market. In the 1940s, the Cub became the primary training plane in the Civilian
Pilot Training
program during World War II. The L-4 Grasshopper, a military
version of the Cub, flew observation and liaison missions
throughout the war.
Then in 1946, demand for the Piper Cub was higher than ever.
The war was over
and returning military pilots were ready to embrace the American dream. 6,000
Cubs were sold that year,
which is still the record for the most civilian aircraft of one type manufactured in a single year.
Over the years, Piper Aircraft has created many popular models, such as the Piper Cherokee, Arrow, Aztec and Malibu.
One of the easiest to spot and classic Piper Aircraft are the beloved yellow Piper Cubs.
Today, the Cub is recreated by CubCrafters
(Carbon Cub, Sport Cub, and Top Cub) and by American Legend Aircraft
(Legend Cub, which is offered in J3 and PA11 styles).
Piper Cub Insurance from Aviation Insurance Resources
The Piper Cub and Aviation Insurance Resources (AIR) have one thing in
common. Pilots everywhere love the Piper Cub.
"Flies like a Cub" is still one of the
greatest compliments a pilot can give an aircraft. And pilots everywhere love
the aircraft insurance options at AIR.
We offer the broadest package of protection at the best available rates. We represent all of the major aviation insurance markets and are licensed in all 50 states.

Aircraft Windshield Company Celebrates 50 Years of Customer Service
On July 1st 2013 Aircraft Windshield Company will have been in business for 50 years. Thank you to each of our customers, it would be our pleasure to continue to set the standard for service and quality for a half-century more.
Not only did AWC provide the windscreen, Norman worked as a pit crew mechanic for the pole position at the 47th Indianapolis 500 on May 30, 1963. Parnelli Jones and his crew were victorious that year and our race window production was born.
|
Aircraft Windshield Company’s products soon became known for their high quality optics and through word of mouth, the business expanded. In 1965 AWC moved the shop to Los Alamitos, California where Norman continued to manufacture acrylic parts for aviation and race vehicles. |

Jon Norman, Mark’s son and AWC foreman, was able to embody the sentiments and expectations of Aircraft Windshield Company’s fiftieth year in business with this statement:
“Projects we have done in the past are what has brought this company to where we are today.
They have given us experience, challenge, opportunity and great sense of accomplishment.
We look forward to all projects. None too small, and never too big.”

The Pilot Insurance Center Announces New Lower Rates
The Pilot Insurance Center Announces New Lower Rates “Nobody gets up in the morning and just says, ‘Today, I’m going to shop for life insurance.’ Well, this is something that might get them started.” So says Randy Williams, partner at The Pilot Insurance Center, which has, for over fifteen years, matched pilots with the best full life insurance offered by A+ rated companies and, as the nation’s largest independent provider of individually-underwritten pilots’ life insurance, is the chosen life insurance provider to the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA).
“We want to announce a breakthrough with a top carrier that now allows us to offer superb coverage and great rates to pilots,” says Bill Fanning, President of PIC. “For the coverage offered and the carrier involved, these are the best rates, ever.”
Not knowing is costly.
Pilots’ life insurance is often misunderstood. Most life policies, even policies for airline pilots, do not cover General Aviation flying, either as pilot or passenger; many pilots thus don’t realize that they aren’t covered when they fly GA. Others think they need to buy two policies: one for their flying activities, and another for their “regular” life insurance. “That’s not so,” says Fanning. “A single policy, tailored to the pilot’s needs, experience, ratings, and so on, gives better protection and can be less expensive than mixing and matching; and it avoids possible problems in claims down the road. Your standard insurance broker doesn’t deal with aviation; he doesn’t know what questions to ask, and he doesn’t have the carriers in line to back him up – you get the wrong coverage at the wrong rate. At PICLIFE, we don’t have to ask you what an instrument rating is.”
In order to get to the best policy for each pilot, The Pilot Insurance Center doesn’t advertise mass-market, loss-leader sales, or have a hypothetical online quote machine. As in flying, experience counts. Williams continued, “We tailor each policy to each pilot. Some types of flying are of course more-expensive to insure than others. Astronauts are just more-expensive to insure than say, the guy who flies a Bonanza.”
The way to get started is to make a personal phone call. “We don’t publish a loss-leader rate that nobody qualifies for,” says Williams. “We’d rather know what we’re talking about; and I believe the pilot would, as well.” (Note: there is also a new online application that allows an interested pilot to submit a no-obligation trial application online and never have to talk with an agent if they prefer.)

Canada fly-in fishing for walleye, northern pike,speckled trout and small mouth bass from our seaplane base near Sudbury Ontario. .
Some photos sent by our outpost guests this year. Sudbury Aviation operates twelve northern fly-in fishing camps located north of Sudbury. Our base is located four hours north of Toronto or three hours east of Sault Ste. Marie Ontario. After twenty years of conservation management the fishing on our lakes today is as good as it was one hundred years ago. Canada fly-in fishing for walleye, northern pike, smallmouth bass and speckled trout
Are you a fly-fisherman? New fly-fishing info here for sought-after natural occurring speckled trout, known elsewhere as a brook trout. Northern Ontario's natural occurring speckled trout, is really a fresh water hybrid arctic char and is thought to have been deposited or stranded in Northern Ontario lakes and rivers by retreating ice sheets many thousands of years ago. In addition, using a fly rod for bass is just the best fishing action ever, try it!

Letters from Happy Campers
Marg,
Just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know how much I
appreciate all that you and staff have done for me and my dad over the
past eight years. You all do such a great job keeping the cabins and
boats in excellent condition. We couldn’t ask for better
accommodations or service, you have made us feel like part of the
family.
We are amazed every year with how great the fishing is and the beauty
of the landscape. Our time with you may only last a week, but the
memories will stay with us for life. Cannot wait to see you this July.
I am sure that the planes, cabins, and lakes will be in the same
pristine condition that we have grown accustomed to over the years.
Thank you again for everything, you go well above and beyond all
expectations.
Sincerely,
John Brewer Jr.

Hi Marg,
Just want to thank you for everything. Quinn is a true fisherman and I
couldn't have had a better place to introduce him to the joys of
wilderness fishing. He fished for hours at a time, and remained
enthusiastic whether he was catching fish at the time or not. He loved
the plane rides and sleeping in the top bunk. We also had the thrill of
experiencing together an otter diving and surfacing over and over to
check out our boat. You only have one opportunity for a first fishing
trip with your grandson. Ours couldn't have been better.
Thanks again,
Uncle Dave

Hi Marg,
Hope things are well with you. We would just like to thank you
again for our wonderful week of fishing at your outpost on Indian lake.
We had a great time. The fishing was excellent; a few evenings the
walleye were practically jumping in the boat. We very much enjoyed the
solitude as well.
There were many bays and streams to explore. If we’d been able to stay a month, we would not have been able to see them all.
We were also very pleased with the equipment and accommodations.
Your courteous staff and pilots treated us very well. We couldn’t
have asked for a better experience. I would recommend Sudbury Aviation
to anyone looking to get away and enjoy some peaceful time in the
wilderness.
Best Regards,
Mike Coulter
