Insurance Concerns May Now Prevent Harrison Ford From Flying

According to a report by The Los Angeles Times, "It will be stipulated in bold, black ink that he won't be able to fly while he's on the set," said Angela Plasschaert, a Los Angeles-based risk management consultant who works with film producers and insurance companies. "There wouldn't be a sane person on the planet that would want to write that policy. If I was the underwriter, I would definitely look at the whole situation before deciding whether or not I was going to entertain the risk."

Perhaps part of the insurance issue is the fact that this is not Ford's first plane crash. Back in 1999, he went down in a helicopter crash during a training flight and then the next year Ford also crashed a small plane. Being an avid flier and an aviation buff also means he has been in risky situations often, and it can now really work against him on set.

Do you think Ford is really going to care about limitations at this point? After this crash, do you think he is maybe feeling like he cheated death and is ready to play it just a little safer? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section below.
