Rutan Long EZ Aircraft Insurance
Burt Rutan produced blueprints for a variety of homebuilt aircraft in the 1970s. The high-performance Long-EZ, debuted in 1979, is one of the most popular.
There are several variations of this aircraft. Due to it being home built, aircraft owners can customize it in several ways. It is important for your Long EZ insurance policy to show the correct configuration of the aircraft. The underwriting insurance company will also need to approve the engine used to power the aircraft.
The high volume of these aircraft and their solid safety record make the Long EZ one of the most insurable experimental airplanes in the industry. Our aviation insurance underwriters will consider multiple factors when quoting Long EZ insurance including pilot history and experience, the runway length and surface, the hull value, liability limits, and deductible options. Our aviation insurance specialist agents can help place Long EZ insurance policies with the top aviation insurance companies in the industry.
Pilots transitioning into the Long EZ from other aircraft may be required to fly with a CFI in the make and model prior to solo. The CFI will usually be required to have previous experience in the Long EZ. Each policy is different. Please be sure to read your individual policy. Dual requirements will usually be found in the ‘pilots’ section of your policy.
We have been in the industry for over three generations, and pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service and value. Long EZ insurance quotes can be obtained by calling our office or applying online.
