Contract Analysis & Insurance Reviews

In aviation, the fine print matters. Airport leases, handling contracts, hangar agreements, charter contracts and customer terms can quietly shift large amounts of risk onto your business. Insurance is only part of the solution – you also need to understand what you’re actually signing. Altitude Aviation Insurance offers contract analysis and insurance reviews, so you can make informed decisions before you accept new obligations.

Hangar Insurance
WHAT TYPES OF CONTRACTS WE REVIEW

We can assist with:

  • Airport and hangar leases
  • Ground handling and refuelling contracts
  • Maintenance and engineering agreements
  • Charter and aerial work contracts
  • Drone service agreements and scopes of work
  • Supplier and contractor agreements

We don’t provide legal advice, but we highlight insurance and risk issues so you can negotiate with your counterparties and, where appropriate, your legal advisors.

WHAT WE LOOK FOR

During a contract and insurance review, we typically:

  • Identify where contracts require limits or types of insurance you don’t currently hold.
  • Flag indemnities, hold harmless clauses and waivers that shift risk onto your business.
  • Highlight mismatches between contract wording and policy wording.
  • Suggest ways to rebalance insurance requirements or adjust your program to match.
  • Help you prepare questions or negotiation points for your counterparties.
WHY CONTRACT ANALYSIS IS CRITICAL FOR AVIATION BUSINESSES

The service page already hints at a key truth: not everything is covered by insurance. 

Contractual obligations can:

  • Create uninsured exposures if they go beyond standard policy coverage.
  • Increase your liability limits without you realising.
  • Impact premiums if not disclosed correctly
    Affect how a claim is handled or paid.

By requesting a review before you sign, you reduce the chance of costly surprises later.

INTEGRATING REVIEWS WITH YOUR INSURANCE PROGRAM

Because we also manage your insurance placements and renewals, we can:

  • Build contract requirements into your policy design.
  • Work with insurers to obtain endorsements or increased limits where justified.
  • Maintain a clear register of key contractual obligations and corresponding cover.
  • Review new contracts as your business grows and changes 

NEED A CLEAR VIEW BEFORE YOU SIGN?

Before you commit to your next lease, tender, or supplier agreement, make sure the risk is fully understood — not just assumed.
