Hi all,

With the broadest of brush strokes I just want to get the general perspective of what you would expect to pay for a simple journey. Yes, there are many variables, and caveats, and it will be tricky to offer any precision.

Let's go with a simple example.
C172S (rental/wet)
Departing aerodrome A to land at aerodrome B, then return. Ignore landing fees.
Distance around 20nm (approx 12 to 15 mins point to point, winds light)
Taxi/Take-off/Approach/Landing not included in the above numbers

If you woke up today wanting to make that round trip, what number would you have in your mind to budget for it, please?

Thanks
