Chris-as Mark has said,you have probably made up your mind to fly that 55,and in a free world that is your perogative.
BUT,simply because you have no insurance,do not think that you will be the only one affected when your engine decides to part company from the airframe in flight.
Firstly,insurance companies folow EVERY accident in every part of the world,so even if they will not have to pay out on yours it WILL affect our premiums in this small world of Russian aircraft.
Then,many of us are very concerned to provide the correct immage of these planes and their pilots.The public and governmental agencies[apart from,in your case, the FAA] are not that concerned about the reasons for a crash-but it will be [and indeed has been]seen as another reason to begin to restrict peoples freedoms to fly such planes.
Also,an aircraft accident does not end with a hole in the ground-someone has to pay for clearing it up;investigating the reasons etc,etc,and,finally,that comes down to the flying comunity or the tax-payer!
Finally,in the 23 years since I brought the first Yak to the West,I must have been involved in at least 50 M14 ground strikes,and I find it VERY difficult to believe that 3 inches off one blade would cause an engine mount to break-I'm sure there is more to it than than that.
