An aircraft accident can affect not only the aircraft itself but also passengers and people and property on the ground. Compensation claims against the operator can then reach amounts far beyond the hull damage.
Aircraft Liability insurance covers the operator's liability towards third parties and passengers. Limits are set in SDR (Special Drawing Rights) based on the aircraft's maximum take-off weight, in line with Turkish DGCA (SHGM) regulations and international rules. We determine suitable limits for your aircraft and type of operation with you and obtain your quote from Corpus Sigorta.

The SDR (Special Drawing Right) is a unit of account defined by the International Monetary Fund and used for liability limits in international aviation rules; its Turkish lira equivalent changes with exchange rates.
Damage to the aircraft itself falls under Aircraft Hull insurance, not this policy. Scope, limits and exclusions are set out in the policy's special conditions.
