Aircraft Insurance: Is training use covered?

'Ab-initio Instruction' means use of the Aircraft for flight training of a pilot for the purpose of their obtaining a licence necessary to command an aircraft. Cover for such use can be added to your aircraft insurance by selecting the ab-initio use option on the aircraft page of the quote.

'Advanced Instruction' means use of the Aircraft for flight training of a pilot for a purpose other than their obtaining a licence necessary to command an aircraft. This would include activity such as instruction to gain a rating or conversion training. Cover for advanced training is also available as an option under our aviation insurance at no extra cost. Any appropriately qualified instructor providing continuation and/or advanced training of any permitted pilot is automatically included as a permitted pilot for the duration of such training provision.
