INSURANCE BY AND FOR PEOPLE WHO FLY
About / About Us
Put pilots together and they talk about aircraft. About training and trips. About the adventure of it all. And all too often, pilots talk about how aviation insurance is costly, arbitrary, and archaic. How it’s hard to see any link between premiums, safety records and training. How it’s unfair for safe, smart pilots, especially as they age.
SEE A PROBLEM. SOLVE IT.
5X5’s founder heard the complaints loud and clear in flight school. To an experienced entrepreneur accustomed to spotting opportunities, aviation insurance was ripe for a better way. So he put together a leadership team of pilots, problem-solvers and insurance specialists to devise one. 5X5 is the simpler, customer-focused solution.
Aviation insurance is a business that’s changed little in decades. Pilots and owners think it’s slow and not transparent. It’s analog in a digital world. 5X5 is none of that.
