BWI Aviation Insurance

BWI Aviation Insurance is a family owned aviation insurance agency. The site says it has worked in aviation insurance since 1977. It covers aircraft, drones and commercial aviation, and the site says more than 10,000 pilots trust it. The company is owned and run by Matt White as owner and CEO, and Bill White is listed as the founder.

The site lists four main groups of customers. Aircraft owners can find aircraft insurance. Aviation businesses can find commercial aviation cover. Drone operators can find insurance for photography, inspections and mapping. Renters and borrowers can find cover for planes they fly but do not own. The company also says it works with helicopters, seaplanes, private jets and gliders.

The company tells its story through programs. In 1979 it set up what it calls the first Robinson Helicopter insurance program, working with Robinson, and had over 200 helicopters in it. In the 1980s it started a program for Cessna 180 and 185 pilots. The site says it insures aircraft from gliders and helicopters to multi-engine turbine aircraft.

Customers are asked to share how they fly, including the aircraft, pilot experience and intended use. An insurance specialist then explains coverage, limits and policy details. The company keeps in touch for policy changes and renewal. The site names team members such as Katie Talmo, who is an account manager, and Emily Skamla, who is a sales executive.

The website has a quote form that takes two to five minutes, pages to pay a policy, report a claim and download documents, and a section for brokers. It also has FAQs and a journal with articles on topics such as insurance for estates and for flight instructors. The company lists more than 980 Google reviews.
