Insurance
In accordance with the State of Michigan Act 96 of Public Acts of 1986, the following information is being provided. As the renter of our aircraft, you are hereby notified that you are insured under a policy provided by Aviation Center Inc. for personal liability coverage up to $1,000,000.00.

Aviation Center Inc. carries liability, property damage and hull insurance on each aircraft of $1,000,000.00 with a limitation of $100,000.00 per passenger. This policy has the following deductibles:

These deductibles are the responsibility of the renter of record.

Aviation Center requires the purchase of non-owner renter insurance for all fixed gear renters, and requires non-owner renters insurance on all retractable, and multi-engine renters. Should the renter let the required insurance lapse, it is understood that the renter will not rent any aircraft, and if they violate this rule by continuing to rent an aircraft, they will be fully and solely responsible for paying these deductibles himself.

This coverage is available from most aviation insurance agents. A brochure is available from our counter on one of these policies.
