Airport Requirements

Many Minnesota airports and FBOs require proof of liability insurance ($1M minimum) for based aircraft and transient operations.

Minnesota is the only state that requires liability insurance for virtually all GA aircraft. Under Minn. Stat. 360.92, operating without insurance is a misdemeanor. Minimums: $100,000 per passenger seat (bodily injury/death and property damage), $100,000 per non-passenger per accident, $300,000 per occurrence for non-passengers. If your insurer cancels, MnDOT must be notified at least 10 days prior and your registration is automatically revoked. Exemptions exist for FAA experimental certificate aircraft (no passengers) and pre-1940 historic aircraft.
