A question that comes up in almost every onboarding call with new owners: what the lender will expect from the insurance when the aircraft is financed. The real confusion is that the loss payee, the hull value and the loan amount all have to line up before closing. So we put together a guide on what lenders typically ask for and how to get your coverage ready early.

Storm heading for your airport? Hurricane season and nor'easters can damage aircraft even when they stay parked.

We put together a guide with a storm prep checklist and FAQs for aircraft owners and renter pilots.

Key takeaways from our new guide:

- Review your policy before the storm is named
- Check that your insured value is current
- Secure ties and chocks, and move the aircraft only if it is safe
- Photo-document the aircraft and save your insurer's contacts

We noticed a pattern: aircraft owners kept running into the same confusion about telling their insurer about an avionics upgrade. The real issue is whether the value on your policy still matches the aircraft you actually fly. So we wrote this up to cover what to ask before the install and which paperwork to keep.

At SkyWatch, we're congratulating the 19 companies that received FAA funding to help bring drones safely into the National Airspace System.

The FAA awarded $12 million through its UAS Broad Agency Announcement Program, and the names behind the work are the ones shaping how drones will fly alongside crewed aircraft.

Congratulations to General Atomics and NAVMAR on their work to help large drones avoid other aircraft and fly safely. Well done to ANRA Technologies, which won four projects, and to SPS Aerial Remote Sensing, which won three. Congratulations also to DroneUp on its drone identity and approval-to-fly work, Devorto on long-range cargo, and Censys Technologies on satellite communications for long-range flights.

We also want to recognize OneRadio on passive radar, Frequentis USA, Skydweller, Aerial Vantage on urban airspace management, Lighthouse Avionics on long-route surveillance, ResilienX on mission coordination, and Oklahoma State University on drone visibility technology.

What this means for operators:

- The research targets the barriers to beyond-visual-line-of-sight flight
- Traffic management and identity tools are being built now
- These are research awards, not new rules, so operating requirements don't change today

This comes up in almost every conversation we have with commercial drone operators. Park and public land permits often ask for proof of insurance, and it is not always clear what limits, wording or additional insured the agency expects. So we put together a guide on commercial drone insurance for park permits.

Buying an airplane? Kelly Funk, pilot and SkyWatch Brand Ambassador, shares four steps to take before you close.

Start with insurance. Your aircraft type, experience, hull value and coverage needs can all affect your quote. With SkyWatch, you can explore your aircraft insurance options online before you buy.

Then get an independent pre-buy inspection, review the maintenance and damage history, and verify the aircraft title is free of liens.

SkyWatch makes aircraft insurance easy, so you can focus on finding the right plane

One question keeps coming up from pilots at flight schools: is tailwheel training covered when you rent? Policies often treat tailwheel time, dual instruction and solo flights differently, and the rental agreement can leave you with the deductible. So we wrote this up to help you ask the right questions before your first lesson.

What does your client actually mean by “proof of insurance”?

Commercial drone contracts often ask for more than a COI:

• Additional insured status
• A waiver of subrogation
• Primary and non-contributory wording

These requirements may need policy endorsements. Finding that out after the contract is signed can delay the job.

Skywatch’s new guide explains what each term means and what to confirm before you fly. The full guide is in the first comment.

Which requirement causes the most back-and-forth with your clients?
