I didn't know EAA still did UL registration... ask your insurer.
Does anyone know what the benefits of a USUA membership might be? I am genuinely curious.

You get a magazine, and can get insurance through their partner(s). Nothing more that I can see.Originally Posted by ironnerd
Looks like the "Powered Sport Flying" magazine is kaput.

It appears insurance coverage through USUA is no longer available, at least I couldn't find it. There is an old link on their site that forwards to First Flight Insurance but I couldn't find any aviation coverage on their site. Most of the pages I found were old and hadn't been updated in several years.
The lack of insurance is a serious problem for someone who wants to base their UL at a public airport. Most airports require liability insurance for tenants on the airport. Then there is the personal liability exposure for the UL operator. Ultralights are an intriguing option but the lack of insurance is a deal-breaker for those who feel the need to protect assets. USUA still offered coverage when I was flying my Legal Eagle but it appears ULs wouldn't be an option for me now.

There's this:

USUA

You MUST be a member of the United States Ultralight Association to qualify for this insurance coverage.
