1Opinion of the Court

O’QUINN, Justice.

The controlling issue in this appeal is whether an unoccupied aircraft, damaged while “in motion” on the ground, was at the time being “operated by a licensed pilot” within coverage of the policy of insurance sued upon.

Dennis Haverlah brought this suit against Republic Insurance Company for damages to an airplane owned by Haverlah under a policy of insurance Haverlah claimed protected against such loss. Republic Insurance denied liability on the ground that the aircraft was not at the time of the accident being operated by a licensed pilot as required under the policy.
