Flying Fifteen Insurance....

The renewal notice for my fifteen's insurance popped through the letterbox this week. If you insure through the BIFFA scheme, I expect your quotes have come through too. Did you notice that the National Fleet was insured with JK Lee, but has now shifted to Cobra Insurance in Caterham?

Anyway - it looked a tad expensive so thought I would shop around. Inspired by a conversation with Grayson Eacott, I called Newton Crum. They more or less hang up the phone with indecent haste - they wont offer cover for FFs. So then I called Noble Marine, who even have a Flying Fifteen page (with a great photo, by the way) on their website. Interestingly, it was even more expensive than the BIFFA scheme. So that's where we are going this year - back to BIFFA !!....

If you have any cheaper sources of Flying Fifteen Insurance, let me know on datchetman@flyingfifteen.com.....
