Yes that's the ballpark I was thinking. So written down over 16 years @ 2000 flying hours/year that gives £1000 per hour in depreciation plus ??? in interest/cost of capital. For a two hour flight...

I flew LBA -AGP on the 0700 a month ago. Guess what, the terminal is busy. Shell out for a coffee at one of the first two outlets you come to and sit there until boarding tiime.
