"I was told that it runs at about £3.5k per hour.

Insurance circa £50k

Appx 8hrs maintenance to 1 hrs flying

Merlin Engine lifed at 500hrs with rebuild figures of circa £85k before anything needed."


Mother of God. Makes me wonder how much money passed before my eyes at Flying Legens this year.
