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..

Thanks Denny, this helps. To be honest, I am pretty sure we are going
the 414 route since the 340 is pretty narrow.

Sorry if I came across harsh, that was not my intention. 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.


Manitowoc? Idaho?

1. AirNav.com / MTW

Ahhh. Manitowoc, Wisconsin. East of OSH - on the shores of Lake Michigan.

Montblack,

That would be my hometown. Any 414 info would be great.

Thanks,
