Operating Costs

DIRECT OPERATING COST
Fuel @ $3.00 per gallon and 4.0 gph for average use $12.00
Oil $1.10
Periodic Inspections, Labor @ $90 per hour $10.00
DIRECT OPERATING COST PER HOUR $21.10

OPERATING COST-PER-ROAD MILE

Assume one air mile (straight line path) equals 1.5 road miles, and assume an average cruise speed of 93 miles per hour with a cruise fuel consumption of 4 gph.

($53.33 + $21.10) ÷ 93 ÷ 1.5 = .53¢ per road mile

The above estimates are approximate and will vary based on use, maintenance, flight conditions and prices. The information provided is for comparison only and not guaranteed.
