would you like me to scan in the article from the 1938 Flying Aces issue where the insurance was first offered?[>:] I have the issue. It was a fairly low value policy. 50 cents a year for $200 liability. The explaination was it was intended to cover things like a plane hitting a car and breaking the windshield.

The AMA has had some insurance available as an option or as a basic part of membership ever since.

The AMA has had some form of safety code for just about as long.... I think I could come up with some 1930's to 1940's editions that list that too.
