Hello everyone,

I'm looking into the acquisition (initially via a dry lease) of a T210. I'm curious if anyone has an idea of what the dry lease rate should be? I would be responsible for fuel, oil, insurance and hangar. The owner would be responsible for maintenance.

I know my portion will be roughly $100/hr for fuel, $15/hr ($250/month) for hangar and $25/hr ($5,000/year) for insurance... but I'm finding it difficult to find ballpark figures for maitenance, overhaul and prop reservers.

I'm basing my numbers on 200 hrs/year.

Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Engine overhaul (TSIO 520) is about $55,000 including the shipping, labour for the R & R etc with a TBO of 1600 hrs = $34/hr.

Prop will be about $4000 (overhaul 10 yrs or 2000hrs)= $2/HR or 400/yr

Annual= $5000

misc repairs (conservative) = $5000/yr
