Aviation Specialty Insurance (ASI) took its new name late last year to better illustrate its commitment to all phases of the aviation industry. Formerly known as Corporate Aviation Insurance Group, ASI (Booth 12347) now offers services to private operators, fleet owners, flight schools, agricultural operators–even unmanned aircraft operators. 
  
In addition to branching out to include a wider client base, the company added AOPA veteran insurance specialist Kevin Walters as senior client representative. Based near Atlanta, Walters adds a southeastern base to ASI, which also has locations in Columbus, Ohio, and Fort Wayne, Ind. Company president Matt Drummelsmith also reports that the company has expanded its portfolio of carriers, now representing nearly all major aviation insurance underwriters in North America, with affiliated partnerships in the UK and Brazil.
