issues that you definitely don’t need at that time.

NTSB procedures.

Notify the Insurance Company. As soon as
possible, notify your insurance company. Note the
time, place and description of the occurrence and
the names with points of contacts for any injured
people and witnesses, including all passengers.
Immediately forward copies of any demands, notices,
summonses or legal papers received in conjunction
with an occurrence.
-
Understand your Insurance Policy. Read your
insurance policy to understand the specific steps
and duties you need to perform in the event of a
loss. This information is usually found in the
“Conditions of Insurance” section. As always, call
us if you need help with this.

Protect the Property. Do everything in your
power to protect the aircraft or property from
further damage. DO NOT abandon it.
-
Do
Not Make Any Statements. Do not make any written
or oral statements about the occurrence without your
insurance company’s permission. You cannot hinder
the insurance company’s ability to seek
reimbursement for damages from responsible parties,
therefore, do not assume any obligation, liability,
accept any offer or reward or make any payment,
except for necessary first aid or to immediately
protect from further damage.
-
File Proof of Loss. Proof of loss must be filed
with the insurance company within a set amount of
time. This is usually a sworn statement setting
forth the interest of the named insured and of all
others in the property affected, any encumbrances,
the value of the property at the time of the loss,
the amount, place, time and cause of such loss, and
the description and amounts of all other insurance
covering such property.
-
Cooperate with the Insurance Company. Allow the
insurance company to inspect the damaged property
before disposal or making repairs. Also, cooperate
with the insurance company’s representatives with
such things as regular communication with the
adjustor, answering questions about the occurrence
under oath, helping obtain and give evidence,
attending hearings and trials and getting witnesses
to testify, etc.
