Utilisation scenarios

Hours per year	Annual budget	Cash cost per hour	Total cost per hour
100	$528,000	$4,380	$5,280
200	$640,000	$2,750	$3,200
300	$752,000	$2,207	$2,507
500	$976,000	$1,772	$1,952

Fixed cost is spread across the hours flown, so the effective hourly cost falls sharply with utilisation.
