Understanding the Aircraft Data and what it means to you.
The following pages and links will help you find what you are looking for in the cost and analytic numbers. For example, for some who are looking for the cheapest way to build time, average fuel burn per hour will be much more helpful than FT or MPG, and vice verse. Some one looking for an aircraft for business purposes might be very interested in those numbers but not so much in the exact fuel burn per hour.
