Is the IPPI Card accepted in your country ?

What is the minimum legal insurance coverage required in your country ?
There is no legal requirement for minimum insurance coverage, but JHF requires all pilots to become a member of JHF, with which they will be provided third party liability insurance coverage.
What additional coverage does your country recommend (such as medical insurance, search and rescue etc...) ?
JHF recommends all pilots join its group insurance contract which covers medical and rescue expenses.
Is your NAC prepared to provide a special insurance coverage for guest pilots who do not comply with your national law ?
