Well, I figured I would confirm what Aviation Consumer has been telling all of us for a while. I recently renewed the insurance on my Beech V35B. I’m currently 77 years old and about to make 78. A week after I submitted my payment (which doubled from last year), I received a certified letter from my insurance company, which is brokered by AOPA, saying that my insurance is now in the non-renewal category as of August 2021. I guess they were shocked that I renewed after the bump in cost.
I have been flying over 50 years. In the time I was a U.S. Air Force Command Pilot, a test pilot, I hold an ATP, flew two tours in Vietnam, I’m active in the Civil Air Patrol and I’m still in good health. After retiring from the Air Force, I worked as a test pilot for North American Rockwell, which later was bought by the Boeing. I retired a few years ago.
