I've got a question about chapter liability for damage to aircraft during events. I could have just called Karen, but I thought this may be of interest to other people too.
We haven't had any damage incidents, but did have a "Oooo, we didn't know we were that close." situation. I know there's an option to purchase aircraft damage insurance, but it's quite expensive for our size chapter, and we don't have any facility or regular aircraft activity.
I'm asking about pushing aircraft related to an event. Most of the time, the operator is there, but occasionally we've moved planes, with permission from the owner/operator, without them present. Does event insurance cover the chapter, or do we need to have the owner/operator in direct control of any plane movement?
Thanks
