About Avemco Insurance Company
Written by the company
Avemco Insurance Company has been insuring pilots and aircraft owners since 1961, making us one of the most experienced and trusted names in general aviation insurance. As the only direct writer of aircraft insurance in the United States, we offer a uniquely straightforward experience from the very first conversation. We specialize in liability and hull coverage for single and multi engine piston aircraft, seaplanes, gliders, experimental aircraft, CFIs, flying clubs, and aircraft traders.

overage based on your individual situation.
This direct model allows us to deliver the most personalized experience in general aviation insurance. Your underwriter works one on one with you to understand your aircraft, your experience level, your training, and how you actually fly, giving you faster answers, clearer communication, and attentive service.
Rated A++ (Superior) by AM Best, we offer exceptional financial strength and long standing stability. Backed by decades of aviation expertise, we deliver clear policies, fast quotes, exceptional customer service, and coverage built around the way you fly.

Written by the company
- Avemco Insurance Company is the only direct writer of aircraft insurance in the U.S.
- That means we’re the only insurance company that connects you directly with an Aviation Insurance Specialist (underwriter) who is empowered to solve problems and approve coverage instantly instead of a middleman who simply passes your request on to somebody else. That’s why we can approve coverage based on your individual situation, not what some rulebook says.

Lancair IV insurance
I just have liability insurance for my Lancair IV. It is very affordable and Avemco is good to work with to provide waivers for the Sport Air Racing Leage and the EAA AIRVENTURE Race
