Pilots and aircraft owners now have another choice when it comes to aviation insurance. Sporty’s recently announced the launch of Sporty’s Insurance Center, in partnership with Global Aerospace and the Loomis Company, which will offer coverage for both aircraft owners and renters.

As a leader in the aviation community for providing customer service, Sporty’s Insurance Center will make insurance easier to purchase with fast, automated online quotes available around the clock on a mobile-friendly website. In many cases, pilots can do more than just get quotes – they can purchase coverage on the spot and immediately receive their policy by email, saving time and frustration.

“You can buy almost anything online these days, so why not aviation insurance?” says Sporty’s President Michael Wolf. “By combining the latest technology with the expertise of seasoned insurance professionals, we’re able to offer the fast and easy online purchasing experience that pilots have come to expect from Sporty’s.”

Other key benefits of Sporty’s Insurance Center are competitive pricing, including some of the lowest rates available for aircraft and renters insurance, and broad coverage – even experimental and Light

Sport Aircraft. Accident forgiveness is also standard, meaning no premium surcharges for losses under $10,000.

Another valuable benefit of Sporty’s Insurance Center is to have pilot supplies covered. That means that if a headset or portable GPS is stolen, policyholders will be reimbursed.

Sporty’s has teamed with two of the best in the aviation insurance business to deliver a program that puts pilots first. Global Aerospace, Sporty’s exclusive underwriter, is a leading provider of aircraft insurance, and has more than 90 years of experience. The Loomis Company is a respected aviation insurance agency with decades of experience and a focus on the personal touch.

“Pilots should be able to purchase low cost, high quality coverage online,” says Jeff Bruno, President and Chief Underwriting Officer of Global Aerospace. “By teaming with Sporty’s and Loomis we have made the process of buying high quality insurance simple to understand and convenient.”

Pilots who purchase coverage through Sporty’s Insurance Center will also receive two exclusive benefits: a free $25 Sporty’s gift card that is valid for any purchase, and a free aviation emergency response planning kit that provides peace of mind for a pilot and his or her family. And personal service is available at any time.

“Even though we’re proud of the online quote system, pilots can rest assured that there are still knowledgeable and helpful insurance agents available to answer questions,” says Loomis Company President James Loomis.
