Default 55 pound increase

somewhat simplistic, but use weight tiers... under 10 pounds, 10-20, 20+ (arbitrary numbers, make up your own...) You choose which coverage you want, with full knowledge that if you own & fly something other than that, it is your full responsibility and no insurance...
This just opens up the whole can of worms. If you have a 15 pound jet traveling 200 mph it will cause more damage than a 15 pound Aerobat flying 60, or performing 3d. So why would they pay the same rate in a "tiered system"

Just one example of the type things that will be showing up in the can of worms. There are many others, such as pilot experience, reflexes,...etc, etc, etc...
