Description
In 1967, while piloting an airplane as a captain for Frontier Airlines, plaintiff-appellant sustained injuries. Thereafter, he was unable to pass the required physical examination and the Federal Aviation Administration refused to renew his first class pilots license. He had an occupational disability policy with the defendant-appellee. His demand for payment of the policy amount was denied. A dispute ensued over the arbitration provisions of the policy. In 1969, he brought the instant suit and the court stayed proceedings pending compliance with the arbitration provisions of the policy. The insured appealed from the stay order and we dismissed the appeal on the ground that the order was not appealable. Hart v. Orion Insurance Company, 10 Cir., 427 F.2d 528. On remand, arbitration proceeded and resulted in a decision adverse to insured. The court granted summary judgment for the insurer, D.C., 319 F. Supp. 1074.
