Non-owned Aircraft

If you pilot a personal or a rented aircraft, you should be aware of the University´s policy for using this mode of transportation when conducting University business. The employee piloting an aircraft - while permitted with authorization - is not a recommended mode of travel.

However, if you find it necessary to travel by private airplane, here´s what you need to do:

  1. Get approval. You must have approval from your dean/vice provost or director.
  2. File a Certificate of Liability Insurance. At least 10 business days before taking off, you MUST file with the UM Office of Risk & Insurance Management a certificate of liability insurance showing the Curators of the University of Missouri as an additional insured with minimum limits of $2,000,000 per person, per occurrence and property damage.
  3. Get insurance. Because the University will not be responsible for damage to the aircraft, it is recommended that you arrange for physical damage (hull coverage) insurance in all cases.

The Business Policy Manual addresses this mode of transportation in Section 504. For questions regarding this policy, please contact Risk & Insurance Management at (573) 882-8100 or send an e-mail to Assistant Director, JoAnne Flowers at FlowersJ@umsystem.edu.
