I wonder how hard it would be to game by taking out lots of insurance and then delaying the flight deliberately.

I guess that scam works because the cost of a delay is subjective.

The related blog describes it as an experiment. I'm not sure how it would scale because the interface between the reinsurance market and Ethereum contracts seems problematic.
