Do you think it is necessary to have additional renters insurance ??

Thanks,

They will try to find a reason that you caused an event, and not the FBO's aircraft. The cost of renter's insurance is one reason I moved from flying full scale to flying R/C. I guess it really depends on how much you can afford to lose. Even if you just prang the airplane and don't cause any other property damage it can still be a big amount to pay back.

I had a flight school and a guy ran one of mine out of fuel. We didn't go back on him for it. Depends on the school. After I gave it up, they had another guy wreck one doing dumb things and they didn't go back on him either. I know of another school that lost two over the years and they didn't go back on the student in either of those. It is better to be covered than not in an accident though.
