My insurance company, AIG, wants five hours dual in model and type to cover me on the first flight of N14SE an RV-7A. I spent three hours this past weekend with Pierre Smith running around the pattern in his beautiful RV-6A; which, by the way, is configured exactly like mine. Same engine, prop and gauges. My agent, Travers, went back to AIG to get a quote to update my policy from building to flying. Long story short, they weren't happy that my transition training was in an RV-6A and not an RV-7A. They agreed to accept the three hours but want the remaining two in an RV-7A.
Anyone else run into this? I thought a 6A and 7A were interchangeable for transition training. Especially with the exact same engine, prop and instruments. Oh well, will have to scout out an RV-7A somewhere in the Midwest.
