Thunder Over the Blue Ridge Open House and Air Show
The Thunder over the Blue Ridge Board of Directors has been working diligently to ensure that the air show scheduled for May 11 and 12, 2013 at the Eastern West Virginia Regional Airport in Martinsburg would be its usual success and community celebration of our armed forces. The Board could not have been more excited since the show was scheduled to feature the United States Air Force Thunderbirds. It would have been our way of saying thank you to the 167th Air National Guard for all they do in our community.
Unfortunately, due to the automatic cuts in federal spending caused by the sequestration that has gone into effect, the Thunderbirds appearances and operations have been cancelled for all events scheduled for after March 31, 2013. As a result of the loss of the featured act, the Board has reluctantly decided to cancel this year's air show. If federal budgetary and insurance issues are resolved in relatively short order, the Thunder over the Blue Ridge board will consider reinstating the event.
It is worth mentioning the value of modern technology sometimes.A weekend in the UK, booked months in advance, just to catch a long-anticipated air show; the kind where aircraft roar overhead and nostalgia fills the air. But what if your plans hinge on borrowing a friend’s car, and your name isn’t on the policy?
That’s exactly the kind of situation where short term car insurance proves its worth. Whether it’s a borrowed vehicle, a shared drive, or a last-minute hire, this type of cover steps in when traditional policies simply don’t fit.
Why Short Term Car Insurance Makes Sense
- Flexibility: Need a few hours? A few days? You’re only paying for what you actually use.
- No Changes to Existing Policies: The car owner's no-claims bonus stays untouched; no awkward conversations if something goes wrong.
- Immediate Protection: Often active in minutes, giving peace of mind without the admin headache.
Just imagine; you’ve flown in, the weather’s holding (for now), and all that’s left is the drive to the airfield. What if your lift cancels? Or your friend with the car has an unexpected emergency? You need a backup that doesn’t involve rental queues or expensive taxis. This is exactly when short term car insurance earns its keep.
It’s not only useful; it can be essential. Especially when plans shift, or when you're relying on someone else's wheels.
Getting Covered is Easy
You can get quotes in moments; and you’ll be glad you did when the unexpected hits. A short policy, a straightforward fix, and no disruptions to your day out.
