Does anyone use this data to calculate the insurance price for General Aviation (small private jets)?


Yes and No. It has been attempted by a company in the UK, that would raise your rates of you fly in conditions that they deem risky. I think market is so niche and unprofitable that this large data analysis is seem as an unneeded expense for underwriting.


I definitely see things going in this direction eventually however. They've been trying to push it with cars for a while now, doing it with aircraft is trivial by comparison


Can I get more info about this case? What exactly did they do?
