There is also a yearly, albeit simple, guide published in one of the issues of Business and Commercial Aviation (I think that's the name?, you can usually find it sitting around FBO's) and they have a ton of information with aircraft divided by size category. If you don't need anything ridiculously detatiled it would be a good start.

Fuel/Maint for a 1979 Kingair 200 costs my company $690 an hour for one years operation.

Can't speak for the data, but may give you the info. you need before purchasing C&D reports. http://www.jetsales.com/ Resources - Aircraft Comparisons

Hourly cost of operation appears @ bottom of page. They list $537.91 for KA B200SE against sperflys' $690.00. We took a good look @ charter quotes a few years back. Perhaps that will help you narrow things down as well.

Data from friend & client: 2004/5 for low use 421 around $575.00 +/- & busy KA90 @ $600.00 +/-.

Thanks for the info,all! The J.Mesinger website looks to be a good place to start.

I believe it is numbers put in from various members. Seems pretty close except for the fuel cost-vary to your liking
