r0ugh numbers
- what to fly maint cost in $US plus exchange rate plus gst/duty/etc plus 15% to 20% freight/insurance/customs clearance cost.
- fuel cost from home airport. try $1.80/litre
finance cost divided by projected hours flown. private ops try 200 hours
hull insurance cost 2-4 %
liability insurance - how much do you need???
airways/ nav/ landing charges at cost depending where operating from. source from ersa and ASA website
hangarage and maint ferry cost if not maintained at home field.
check and training?? may be an insurance requiremnt
an aileron or rotor blade costs more to freight than a fuel control unit or engine.
scary numbers yet???
if less than 200 hours probably cheaper to charter unless you need absolute availability.
