Heard an ex FA/18 jockey say in an interview the other day that it was $75,000 per hour flying rate for the Hornet.
That was probably everything costed in, fixed and variable costs and all back up staff etc.
Not cheap for the taxpayer.
Also he mentioned a couple of hours flight planning and briefing and post flight 3 or 4 hours debriefing and analysing the flight, also part of the cost.
But no doubt the P3 Orions, C130's and C17's take up most of the flying hours.
