RWSI - Loss of License Insurance Program

RWSI is dedicated to the promotion of the helicopter as a safe and effective mode of commerce and development of civil helicopter industry. Taking forward our continued endeavor towards this objective, RWSI is delighted to announce the launch of an exclusive Aviation Loss of License program for Helicopter pilots in India structured by Alliance Insurance Brokers, one of India's leading insurance brokers.

              "WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I COULDN'T FLY...?"
           That's a question all pilots must ask themselves !!


Career pilots undertake years of hard work and incur considerable expense to obtain their flying license and become a pilot. However, a pilot's career and income are at risk if they are prevented from flying because of a serious injury or deterioration in health. Most pilots are aware of how relatively insignificant health problems, which would not stop a desk-based employee working, can result in them losing their License. While we cannot always prevent the unexpected, some planned protection can sometimes help lessen the damage when disease or disability threatens a career that has provided its members (and members' families) with the lifestyle they've come to know and get used to.

Loss of License Insurance is one such type of protection that all career pilots need, making sure that they'll remain financially secure if they lose their License to Fly.
