Dear Pat,

I called when I found out that I was having serious problems with my First Class Medical Certificate.

You directed me to call Dr Audie Davis, which I did. He was very kind and very knowledgeable about my particular problem.

He did not just sit back and suggest things that I should do, but instead took my case and worked directly with the FAA for me. Dr Davis stayed in touch with me updating me on how things were going.

Then, Dr Davis called me and faxed me my temporary certificate from the FAA. I consider it a miracle, an answer to prayer, and I am very appreciative to him and you folks at Harvey Watt.

Thanks for being there when I needed some help.

Mr. Young,

I am happy to report that I have received my First Class Medical from the FAA and a green light to return to work.

I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for the time you took to present my case to your board for approval. You helped make what could have been a very long and complicated process simplified and routine. It has been a pleasure to work with you.

Thanks you again for your help.

Ms. Keila,

I am writing this letter in recognition of the outstanding service provided to me from Ms. Keila Mosley. During my disability, I had numerous questions about my claim. Every time I called for clarification, I was met by outstanding service and understanding. She would always set me on the right path and answered all of my questions in a very prompt and professional manner.

Keila also encompassed a demeanor which helped put me at ease during this trying transition to recovery. I am truly grateful.

Her guidance and help made a big difference in helping me get back to flight status with Delta Air Lines.

Dear Nurse Dana in Aeromed Dept,
Wow, Steve said you were really good at what you do and he wasn’t lying. I want to thank you for being such a big help and for taking care of this for me.

I wish you could fill me in on how you got this taken care of so fast!

Thanks again for all your help and also please pass that on to the doctors you work with, I would appreciate it.

Captain Pete

Dear Robin,

Again, I want to thank everyone who was involved in getting me back in the air. Every year it seems to be some sort of obstacle that has to be cleared before I can get legal again.

My AME here in Asheville said that I must know some mighty big folks down in Atlanta to get things pushed through the way we did!

I don’t know all of what went on but I do know that you did a tremendous job in getting things to happen. Hopefully the next time we have to do this it will all go nice and smooth.

Thank you very much for your concern and help in this matter and I will talk to you soon (or whenever another medical catastrophe erupts). Take care.

Captain Robert

I just wanted to drop a quick thank you for all of your help. I completed my requalification this morning and return to the line next Monday.

Had I not had your assistance, I am certain I would not be back at work as soon.

First Officer Brad
South Berwick, ME

Thank you Dana for all your help in this.

I could not have done it without you. Both you and the doctor there have been very reactive getting all this done for me. Again I THANK YOU.

First Officer Mike

Octavia,

Thank you so much for the efforts of yourself and Dr. Davis throughout the appeal process regarding my license. I have really appreciated you support. Great job!

Brenda,

Thank you for your assistance and the updated certification of my disability.

I was able to refinance my mortgage to lower my house payment, which really helps me with my bills.

Harvey Watt Staff,

Thanks for your prompt responses in answering all of our questions and for doing such a great job. You’re awesome.

Dear Octavia and Michael,

I wanted to thank you both for your phone calls. It meant a great deal to hear from you and help alleviate much of the anxiety that I feel being on disability.

I never would have thought my flying career would have ended up this way.

Over these many years of sickness I have learned a great deal about living in constant pain and insurance companies. It is mind boggling for anyone to comprehend and even more so when you are seriously ill.

The point of this note is tell you both that I appreciate the respect and kindness you showed me yesterday. My life is difficult but you both made me feel just a little better with your genuine concern and caring phone calls. I know it’s your job, but you went far beyond many of the professionals I have met and worked with over the years.

Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate your help.

Captain Roger

My claims examiner helped me keep up with all the confusing paperwork as I moved into long term disability, always offering expert advice and instruction. She was always there to lend positive emotional support through the ancillary difficulties that arise from disability.

Her professionalism and compassion was truly refreshing considering the lack of care and concern my family has experienced with other insurance administrators.

First Officer Rand
Sewanee, TN

You are wonderful to work with and have been extremely helpful this year.

Absence Management

The FAA has approved my return to work, and I just received my First Class.

I cannot emphasize how much you have done for me throughout this last ten months. In some places, there still is a “Delta Family”. God Bless!

Captain Keith
Fayetteville, GA
Delta Air Lines

This has been a long and highly arduous process for me. I am grateful for the encouragement and good will you have provided in your emails.

For the first time in years, I feel like I am going to have a life thanks for helping me help myself.

Captain William
Lincoln, NE
American Airlines

Thank you for the good work you do for us. I really appreciate how helpful you’ve been, and how helpful and friendly you always are.

You lighten up a process that is by its nature depressing and difficult.

We are fortunate to have you and I hope you’ll be around for a long time.

First Officer Vaughn
Peachtree City, GA

Mike Young did an absolutely outstanding, professional job throughout the process!

Every pilot should have Harvey Supplemental Disability on top of their company's plan.

Thanks to you.

Captain T

I received all the assistance I needed to help plan my return to work and was surprised how quickly they helped me get back!

Harvey Watt knows the FAA!

Captain William

Thank you for hiring such knowledgeable and caring individuals who took the time necessary for me to understand the insurance processes, and timetables to ensure my on-time completion of forms, appointments, and paperwork.

Robin and Cindy went beyond the call of duty to assist me over the year.

They made this difficult time in my life more palatable by far, than I thought it could be. Again, thank you for your responsible and friendly employees- they were a pleasure to know.

Captain Brent
Incline Village, NV

I’m in a situation that I never thought would occur, so I’m glad I had your insurance.

I guess I planned ahead, fortunately.

Captain
Dallas, TX

Everyone I worked with was always very helpful, and I ask a lot of questions!

They got me back to work and ironed out with the FAA lickedy split.

Captain D

The way I feel now is that Harvey Watt insurance should be mandatory for any airline pilot.

Captain A
Atlanta, GA
Delta Air Lines

The past year of my life has been a traumatic one, to say the least.

The loss of a lifelong love affair with airplanes and flying has not been easy to endure.

However, I can say with all honesty, the blow to my career has been substantially blunted in large part due to you and your organization.

The service and support the Watt Company has provided me during the darkest days of this personal tragedy of a career loss will always be special.

First Officer, B-737

I wish to express my heartfelt thanks for getting me returned to work so fast.  The service and assistance I received was above and beyond anything I could have every imagined.

We develop, implement, and manage pilot disability plans for large airlines, small groups, and individuals alike.

View the logos below to see if we already have a plan designed for you and if not, give us a call and we can help.

I appreciate you for all of your kind and thoughtful help during this process.  You helped me go back sooner by showing me that I could take a different medication that wasn't grounding by the FAA.

Only Harvey Watt would have caught that!

Captain Stephen

They were a "10" our of 5.  I will highly recomend!

P.S. The other aeromedical outfit my union had does not even hold a candle to you!

Dear Pat:

I called when I found out I was having serious problems with my First Class Medical.  You directed me to call Dr. Audie Davis, your medical director. 

He did not just sit back and suggest things that I should do, but instead took my case and worked directly with the FAA FOR ME. 

Dr. Davis stayed in touch with me updating me on how things were going.  Then, after a couple weeks, Dr. Davis called me and faxed me my temporary certificate from the FAA. 

I consider it a miracle, an answer to prayer, and I am very appreciative to him and all at Harvey Watt.

I would like to sincerely say, "Thank you!" 

Please forward my appreciation to Dr. Faulkner, Dr. Davis and all those who worked on my behalf.  Believe it or not it could have been a lot more stressful without all you guys going to bat for me.

I recently completed a questionaire about HW service.  I'm proud to say I was able to give you all excellent marks.  Great job and again, thank you all!

First Officer Tim

My Medical Consultant was very knowledgeable and helful in helping me with my FAA medical license concerns.

He acted very quickly and communicated with me often.

Harvey Watt has disability products and life insurance designed especially to meet the needs of many airline and union pilots. 

Choose the logo that applies to you below to view all of the products and services we provide to your organization.

Most pilots do not have enough disability insurance...

Supplement your current company plan with a tax free disability loss of medical license plan or use it to provide that much needed base of protection for you and your family.

We have Life Insurance products available to all American Professional Pilots.

Even if the pilot doesn't purchase insurance, the spouse still may and can benefit from the Commercial Pilot Rates.

We see it all of the time....

If a pilot's spouse passes away, the pilot cannot continue doing his/her job without help to take care of the family.

Ensure that your spouse has adequate life insurance so that your family is protected and you can continue flying.

Did you know?....

One in Twenty Pilots Are On Long Term Disability Every Year!

If you are the ONE - Can You Pay Your Bills?

Contact us for pilot disability insurance to protect your income.

The journey to recovery would have been far more difficult without the support of my claims consultant.

She was even AME trained!

Harvey Watt should be commended for hiring excellent employees.
