Company History

Roots Firmly Planted in the Sky
In 1928, two World War I aviators – Reed M. Chambers and David C. Beebe – saw the need for an insurance company that truly understood aviation. On July 1 that year, they founded the United States Aircraft Insurance Group and an underwriting company to manage it – U.S. Aviation Underwriters Inc.
Chambers (1894-1972) was one of America's first aviation aces. His heroism earned him a number of citations during the Great War, including the Distinguished Service Cross with three Oak Leaf Clusters, the French Legion of Honor and the Croix de Guerre.
