After reading that my automobile policy doesn't cover nuclear war, it got me thinking about my plane policy.
I know my automobile insurance will not cover my engine repair unless it was damaged in an accident, but in aviation, the engine can cause the accident.
Typically, if you have hull insurance (in motion and not in motion) will insurance cover your engine if:
1. Start-up your engine while over priming and the engine catches on fire and burns up (just the engine).
2. Start up and immediately throw a rod out of the cases.
3. Take-off roll and you throw a leg out of bed, and skid pass the threshold and crack a wheel pant (starting a claim).
4. In flight catastrophic failure, and non-event landing.
5. In flight failure, and you bend the plane up, but not totaled.
