Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do drone operators face higher life insurance rates due to aviation work?

Commercial drone operation is generally classified separately from manned aviation for life insurance purposes. Operators who fly drones commercially but not manned aircraft typically qualify for standard occupational rates. Personal health history remains the primary underwriting factor for most commercial drone operators.

How should drone company co-founders structure their buy-sell agreement?

Drone company buy-sell agreements should account for drone fleet value, FAA certification considerations, and client relationship goodwill. Life insurance-funded agreements ensure the surviving partner has both financial resources and operational clarity to continue serving clients after the transition.
