Maintenance/Hangar Costs
I am wondering if somebody out there can give me some real world numbers
on how much their maintenance costs are for a Cessna 340 and 414. I don't care if it has the RAM conversion or not. A good friend of mine is starting a charter company and wants to have numbers to put in the business plan. I am also wondering how much hangar rentals are for the 500 series Cessnas. Thanks Aaron |

If you own a 500 series, tell me what you are paying and at what airport. Well I have a hanger that is big enough for a 500. I pay 450/year land rent and own the hanger. Located at ELD. See that was no help to you at all. Why don't you tell us where you want to base and maybe someone from around there can help you. |

The hangar is to be located at the Manitowoc Airport (MTW). I have a couple people doing some checking for me, but I was just wondering what other people were paying. |

Most companies and private individuals with hangars build their own 60x60 or larger. Right now a new 60x60 will cost $90K built to the airports specs. |

Call the guys at Waupaca, WI. http://www.airnav.com/airport/KPCZ There are a couple new large hangers available for rent/sale/lease that would easily handle a Citation. Jim |

Maintenance/Hangar Costs
I do not have numbers for you. I do know from real world experience
that the 340 is a high maintenance bird with poor dispatch rates... Almost guaranteed to be down waiting for some unavailable part or other every time a big dollar charter walks in the door... 414's seem to be a bit better and the short haul airlines used them heavily in the past, but I don't have any of them on the field to watch so can't give you a personal estimate... The C-500 series are reliable with good dispatch rates... Slow for a jet and as a result somewhat fuel hogs, though.. One of the more reliable ships I have watched have been the PA-31-T Cheyenne's.. denny |
