Protect Yourself With Mechanic’s Insurance
What does mechanic’s insurance cover?
Mechanic’s aviation insurance is a specialized type of insurance coverage designed specifically for aircraft mechanics and maintenance professionals. This insurance addresses the unique risks and liabilities associated with the maintenance and repair of aircraft. The following are some of the key things covered by mechanic’s insurance.
Liability Coverage
One of the primary components of this insurance is liability coverage. It protects mechanics in case their work on an aircraft leads to an incident or accident, covering legal defense costs and any resulting damages or settlements.
Professional Liability
This covers errors and omissions made by the mechanic during their work. If a mistake in maintenance or repair contributes to an aircraft malfunction or accident, this insurance can help cover the associated costs.
Property Damage
This insurance can cover damage to the mechanic’s own tools and equipment, as well as any damage to the aircraft they are working on or other property at the worksite.
Bodily Injury
If the mechanic’s work leads to the injury of others, such as passengers or crew, the policy can cover medical expenses and related claims.
Ground Risk
Ground risk covers risks associated with the aircraft while it is on the ground and not in operation, particularly when it is under the mechanic’s care.
Hangar Keeper’s Liability
For mechanics who operate out of a hangar, this insurance covers liability for damage to aircraft stored in their hangar.
Personal Injury Protection
This might include coverage for injuries the mechanic suffers while on the job.
Environmental and Pollution Liability
Given the potential for environmental damage in aviation maintenance (like fuel spills), some policies include coverage for this.
Completed Operations Coverage
This coverage protects against claims arising from work that has been completed but later causes an issue or damage.
Workers’ Compensation
For employed mechanics, workers’ compensation insurance provides coverage for job-related injuries or illnesses.
How much mechanic’s liability insurance do you need?
Determining the appropriate amount of mechanic’s liability insurance requires considering several factors specific to your situation and the risks involved in your work. These factors can include the value of the aircraft under repair, the number and salaries of mechanics involved, and the risk involved in the repairs.
Who needs mechanic’s liability insurance?
Mechanics who work on aircraft or anyone employing mechanics to work on aircraft need insurance coverage for coverage in the course of performing work duties. Repairing an aircraft may come with some risk to the mechanic, other people, the aircraft, and other property. If you may be held liable for injuries to people or damage to property in the course of aircraft repair, you’ll need an insurance policy to cover it.

"Support staff is awesome"
"Property insurance for condo aircraft hangars in a "Florida coastal area" had been a struggle ever since 2004. Last year it was our good fortune to be referred to Scott Langevin at Avion by the National Hangar Insurance Program; he was the first to provide sensible coverage in over a decade. His support staff is awesome also, and this year's renewal was seamless. Thanks Avion!!"
