By the very nature of their operations, Airfield Operators or Owners are exposed to a financial liability in the event of injury or damage caused through their negligence of faulty operations. It is impossible to emunerate or even visualise all the potential liabilities but the following examples are perhaps the more obvious case.
Loss or damage caused through:-
inadequate maintenance of the Airfield Surface
failure to mark adequately obstructions in or around the Airfield
faulty signals or inaccurate meteorological or directional information to the Aircraft
inadequate protection to the Public
Whatever liability there may be in law there are bound to be legal costs incurred in defending such claims.
The liability of any Owner or Operator must of course vary according to the scope of their operations and in order to correctly visualise the liabilities involved the Proposal Form attached must be completed, when as moderate a premium as possible commensurate with the risk involved will be quoted.
The Policy that will be issued is on wide and comprehensive conditions and is based ion the information contained in this Proposal Form.
