Has any company made calculations for most economical (meaning money not fuel) speed (power) setting? Taking cost of flight hours, maintenance costs per hour/calendar and FF costs into account?
Each company would have a different cost structure so there would be some disparity when comparing. Don't know if the helicopter industry has yet come to the "cost index" input into the FMC as has the fixed wing world.
