Frequently asked questions about the cost
How much does it cost to operate the Mitsubishi Diamond II MU-300 per hour?
Jet Tracker estimate: about US$ 4,082 per flight hour at 200 h/year, of which US$ 2,609 per hour is variable cost (fuel, engine program, maintenance reserves, fees) plus US$ 294,500 per year of fixed cost (crew, hangar, insurance, training).
How much does it cost per year to keep the Mitsubishi Diamond II MU-300 flying 200 hours?
About US$ 816,300 per year (roughly R$ 4,487,038 at today's exchange rate), of which 64% is variable cost (depends on hours flown) and 36% is fixed cost (exists even with the aircraft parked).
How much fuel does the Mitsubishi Diamond II MU-300 burn per hour, in cost?
About US$ 1,302 per flight hour, at the US$ 6.20 per gallon used in this simulation (reference price, not today's quote). Fuel is usually the largest variable cost item.
How much does the Mitsubishi Diamond II MU-300 cost per nautical mile?
About US$ 8.91 per nautical mile, at a cruise speed of 458 kt. It is the right metric to compare aircraft of different speeds on the same route.
What is the difference between variable and fixed cost?
Variable cost only exists when the aircraft flies: fuel, engine program, hourly maintenance reserves and landing fees. Fixed cost exists even with the aircraft in the hangar: crew, hangarage, insurance, training and subscriptions. That is why total cost per hour falls the more hours per year the aircraft flies.
