Can anyone let me know the direct operating costs for the AW139 and AS365N2?

AW139 (EMS): 874.85 $/flight hour :rolleyes:
- Fuel (1) : 129 USG/Hr @ 134 kts
- Fuel at: 2.25USD per gallon
- Labor rate: 65.00USD per hour
so with a more realistic fuel price of at least $4/gallon on the east coast and $80/labor you are looking at $1,110.41/hour

*Data taken from Augusta Westland broschure. So add a few bucks for good measure. ;)
