Falcon 10/100

[rondo]

Anybody know of anyone operating DA10s (Falcon 10/100)?

Thanks in advance.

We operated one for a number of years and I budgeted around 2200 bucks an hour...likely a bit more now with gas prices being higher. Our bird was MSP.

Nope.

We used to have a Falcon 200 based with us. I know the difference between that and a 20. Whats the difference between a 10 & 100???

The 100 was delivered with first-generation Collins EFIS...first bizjet to get EFIS if I recall.

That is the primary difference. Other changes were a std tail-cone baggage area, std TR's, an extra window on the RH side of fuselage, higher gross weight, and a few small interior changes. That's about it.

The engine MSP hourly cost is significantly higher than the Falcon 100, according to a friend that owns one.

The colors of this board are horrific.

I thought it was my computer messing up. I sure hope they go back to the original background. Anyone know if this a trial color scheme the FI folks are trying?

Whyyyyyy; yes I do fly a boeing!!!!!! Its fun, however, I have not been able to go anywhere fun to take photo's of my partners "wind surfing in "Cabo", and telling me about the "Spanish they know" in the restaurant.....

Hell, maybe you can come to Flint, or Bloomington, or hell, even Moline and we can have a beer and catch up....

Isn't this redundant? At least you're still getting to some third world places. How about pickin' up your phone once in a while?

I have picked it up. How about answering the phone once in a while....
u no wut i sayin

 

[jasonwb]

Here are a few #'s for you to kick around......

We figure 240 gal/hr (not sure what your fuel cost per gal. is)
that is based on a 2 hr flight.....1800# the 1st hr and 1400# the 2nd...avg of 1600#........

MSP on the engines is $399/hr

lets say your getting your fuel at $2.50/gal, your fuel and MSP is right at $1000/hr

your scheduled and unscheduled maintenance can really play a factor in your total cost per hr. depending on how much you plan to fly per year and the shape the airplane is in when you get it. i wouldnt put this # in stone, but you can safely add another $500/hr on the sched. and unsched. maintenance #'s based on say a 5 year outlook

again, i am shooting from the hip here.....Hope this helps you somewhat.....

PM me if you like.
