This thread got me to call my insurance company to get a rough idea of what this thing will cost me. (I won't post the company name because they said they can do better when the time comes so these numbers might seem high.)
2007 (Expected completion year)
RV-9
400+ TT
100+ Tail wheel
5 in type (After I go for transition training.)
SEL rating, no IFR
Aircraft equipped for D/N VFR
$65,000 Hull (Hey, I'm using an engine I rebuilt myself to keep the costs down.)
$2,139
If I was building a -9A the premium would be $1896.
If an when my wife wants to start taking lessons in it I'll have to mortgage the house as the premium goes up over $5,000. OUCH!
There seems to be a $300 discount once I get 100 hours in type so the trick will be to put 100 hours on it before I have to renew.
