Avemco Insurance Company, the
country's only direct writer of general aviation insurance, has
claims adjusters ready to respond to claims resulting from
Hurricane Katrina. They are responding to claims where they can
gain access to the airport and are conducting aerial surveys of
affected areas to determine where best to assign their staff.
Claims have been reported and are expected from a wide geographic
area.
If You Need Help...
If your aircraft is insured by Avemco and was damaged by
Hurricane Katrina you can call our claims office CTC Services
Aviation (LAD Inc.) directly at 800-874-9124. Or if you have access
to the internet, you may contact them at avemco@ave.com. Please
be prepared to advise CTC of your policy number (if available),
your aircraft registration number, and the airport where it is
located and to assist them in finding your aircraft, the color of
your aircraft or other distinguishing characteristics and the
location on the airport where your aircraft was secured. If you
believe your aircraft may be a total loss, have your aircraft
registration certificate and logbook available when the adjuster
comes to inspect aircraft.
Avemco is making every effort to provide additional service to
its policyholders in the affected area. An internal taskforce has
been established to implement Avemco's disaster response plan and
deal with the unique issues that are certain to arise from Katrina,
such as:
No issuance of cancellation notices or non-renewals to
customers for non-payment of premium in the affected areas of
Louisiana, Mississippi, or Alabama until further notice.
Providing regular updates to affected policyholders on the
company website, www.avemco.com.
Coordinating the policyholder database with the adjusters'
efforts in order to make the adjustment process as efficient as
possible.
Determining what other actions can be taken to help our
affected policyholders.
Updates to this information will be available on the web
throughout the weeks to come.
