A pilot's career depends on holding a valid licence and medical fitness. An injury from an accident or an illness that prevents flying can keep a pilot grounded temporarily or permanently, which directly means a loss of income.
Pilot Loss of Licence insurance provides the compensation set in the policy if the licence is lost temporarily or permanently due to injury or illness. Pilots can consider this cover individually, and aircraft operators can also request quotes for their pilots. We determine a suitable structure with you and obtain your quote from Corpus Sigorta.
What is covered?
- Temporary loss of licence due to injury
