Gallagher Light Aircraft Insurance is an aviation insurance broker based in Frederick, Maryland. The company is the strategic insurance partner of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. It offers insurance protection for people who own, rent or fly light aircraft. The practice works with all major insurance companies to place coverage for clients in the personal use aircraft and commercial aviation sectors.

The company serves aircraft owners, renters, certified flight instructors and aviation businesses. It also provides coverage for flying clubs and operators of drones and unmanned aircraft. Clients include owners of private experimental aircraft and Vans aircraft. The team creates policies that reflect the aircraft type, usage habits, pilot experience and operational risks of each client.

Coverage options include aircraft hull insurance, liability insurance, passenger liability and ground risk insurance. Loss of use coverage is also available. Aircraft hull insurance covers physical damage on the ground or in flight. This helps owners repair or replace the aircraft after a covered event. Liability insurance protects operators from claims for bodily injury and property damage to third parties.

Passenger liability covers injuries to people aboard the aircraft. Ground risk insurance covers damage that occurs while the aircraft is not in flight, such as during maintenance or storage. Loss of use coverage pays for income lost when an aircraft is out of service due to a covered loss. This helps operators maintain financial stability during setbacks.

The company has an aviation claims advisor on staff. This advisor has more than 25 years of experience in the aviation industry. The advisor works with carrier partners to help clients through each stage of the claims process. The goal is to reach a resolution quickly and effectively after a claim is filed.
