Airport Requirements
Many Indiana airports and FBOs require proof of liability insurance ($1M minimum) for based aircraft and transient operations.
Indiana adopted the Uniform Aircraft Financial Responsibility Act (IC 8-21-3). This is a post-accident security requirement — NOT a pre-flight insurance mandate. After an accident, the state may require a security deposit; failure to comply leads to suspension of registration. Insurance is one acceptable method of compliance, along with surety bonds or cash deposits. Pre-flight insurance is not mandatory but is strongly recommended.
