Key Terms to Know

A few terms come up again and again during an aircraft insurance claim. Understanding them up front makes the whole process easier to navigate.

Betterment

Restoring an aircraft to a better condition than before the damage event. For example, if an 1,800 TTSN/TTSOH propeller with a 2,000-hour TBO is replaced with a new or zero-time propeller, a depreciation factor is applied. In this case, 1,800/2,000 (90%) of the average overhaul cost of the original propeller is deducted from the insurance claim.

Constructive Total Loss (CTL)

A CTL typically occurs when the repair cost plus the salvage value exceeds the insured policy limits. Unlike other industries, aviation lacks a fixed formula for determining CTL. Instead, the value is assessed based on the insured's policy and the adjuster's evaluation. In some cases, aircraft have been repaired up to the policy limit.

Final Proof of Loss

After all repairs are completed, the repair facility submits documentation to the adjuster for review. Once approved, the adjuster provides a statement outlining incident coverage, including deductions for deductibles, unrelated items, and betterment. The insured must process this document to release the final payment.

Subrogation

Occurs when an insurance company seeks to recover losses from a responsible third party. For example, if another party damages the insured's aircraft, the hull insurance covers repairs, and the insurer then pursues reimbursement from the at-fault party or their insurer.
