What is the going rate to ferry a small GA airplane?

I myself charge $0.15 to $0.70 A Mile for labor Depending On the Type of Airplane & Distance my Min fee is $250.00. I know the Flat Rate System I have seems to be working well I am keeping busy. I quote a price and that is the price the client pays for my labor no surprises for weather or mechanical delays. So If I say for example a 2200NM Straight Line Distance in a C-152 is $0.37 NM I give the Customer a Flat rate of $814.00 for my Labor + Expenses and Travel Costs.

I feel this type of pricing is reasonable if I work hard and put in long hours like I always do and get the client their airplane quickly but safely I make more than I would on a daily rate. If there is any type of delay due to weather or I fell that the conditions of the day are not favorable for flying I don’t have to worry about explaining to a client why the airplane did not move that day or did not make any progress “The client dose not have to worry about how much its going to cost they already because they know”

I have done a few jobs now that the client has had the person that is willing to do it for “free” & or the flight instructor or airline pilot that have either abandoned the airplane or was to busy with their day jobs to start or complete the flight.

criminey sakes... they are HERE too? :smash:
 
Just size up the client. If you like him charge less, if you don't like him charge more. Ask him what he would offer to pay and then decide if he's an idiot or not.
I've nevered ferried other than for Mx and that was for free 'cause I was trying to build up to 250 you know. But if someone asked me what I thought would be a fair price for the flying than I'd guess about $50 an hour for anything.
