£7.5m Crown Indemnity Insurance for flying drone near MOD land

Hi There,

I am due to film some shots with my DJI mini 3 pro in June in Wendover woods, very close to RAF Halton, I have most permissions but the MOD require me to have 7.5 million Crown Idemnity insurance and I am having great difficulty locating insurance that has this, any pointers would be greatly appreciated

Hi @GuyJan74 it looks as though you’re quite new here :wave:t2:

Why not nip over to the Introductions page, and say hello properly and tell us a bit about yourself. :+1:t2:

Speak to our friends at Moonrock, they offer bespoke polices:

Don’t forget though, bespoke polices often come with a bespoke price attached - which you might want to pass on to your client :blush:

You can also try Coverdrone. You can select the level of indemnity on the policy and they’ll insure you for a single day if that’s all you need.

As @PingSpike suggests, if you’re billing a client for this don’t forget to factor in the cost of the extra insurance you need for the job :+1:


Edit: Ah, just realised that they’ll only cover for £2m liability if it’s recreational insurance. You’ve not said whether this is a commercial or recreational flight, but for the higher levels of indemnity with Coverdrone you’ll need commercial insurance.

Almost like you fed the post in to Gemini and just copy&pasted the answer there, Trystan. :face_with_raised_eyebrow:

(you’ve got to be faster with your edits if you’re going to pull that crap)

Try the British Model Flying Association for your insurance. It covers Crown Indemnity. Check with them to ensure it covers the level and extent of cover you require.

Well it wasn’t crap, it was factual. Just trying to be helpful. That’s all.

Why do you need Crown indemnity insurance if you’re TOAL’ing from Forestry England land? Do you intend on flying into the Halton FRZ and over RAF property?

Because the forest is in the RAF halton FRZ
