Insurance - Disability benefit?

Postby Luan » Mon May 15, 2017 10:51 am

I recently took out a new insurance policy, and found to my surprise that because I do " microlighting" any disability that arises as a consequence of this sport is excluded from monthly income protectors. Short of having an expensive policy that pays out a lump sum in the event of disability, I am told that this cover is not available for microlight pilots. Is this true? Has anyone found an insurer that does this sort of insurance without the microlight exclusion?

Good advise. Display all your crappy policies and let them re-evaluate and you will probably come out with more inclusive flying insurance for the same price and get rid of those dormant underperforming 'products' of the 80's and 90's.
