: trip distance exceeds published range.
Trip time estimated from published cruise speed and distance. Fuel burn is a published cruise figure; actual consumption varies with altitude, loading, and conditions.
Runway Performance
Density altitude adjusted estimates
Takeoff over 50 ft obstacle
Landing ground roll
FAA 10%/1,000 ft DA rule of thumb (FAA-H-8083-25B). Turboprops and jets are less sensitive in practice. Always verify against the POH.
Estimated Operating Costs
Cost per flight hour
Direct operating cost, split into where the money goes. Re-flows with your fuel and electricity prices above.
Annual costs
Annual fixed costs (insurance, hangar, and inspection) paid whether you fly or not.
Estimates only. Costs vary by location, pilot profile, and market conditions. See individual aircraft pages for source notes.
Capability & limits
Each bar stacks your selected occupants against full fuel and the aircraft's useful-load limit (the black line). The open gap between them is spare payload. Add an occupant and the gap closes; once it's gone, fuel has to give.
Occupants at 190 + 30 lb each (your saved weights); change the count above. Fuel at 6.7 lb/gal jet-A, 6.0 lb/gal avgas.
