If each nav exercise is based on time eg a 3 hour flight, then each one will be cheaper in whichever aircraft is cheaper by the hour. If, however, each nav exercise is based on flying a specific route no matter what aircraft you're in, then you'll need to calculate the flight time in each type and multiply that figure by the hourly cost to find the cheaper option. Don't forget to include any weight/size related additional fees.
