Dry Rate Specials

desertdog71 · July 25th, 2006, 16:40

For those of you needing to build flight time. White Air has decided to offer dry rates on our aircraft. This way you can save money by using reduced power settings.

Cessna 150 Dry Blocks:

25 hours $899.00
50 hours $1599.00
100 hours $2999.00

Twin Comanche Dry Blocks:

25 hours $2299.00
50 hours $4299.00
100 hours $7999.00

Dry rates means that you purchase the fuel. We require that you purchase 100LL only. NO MOGAS.
You must take a quick checkout ride on the C-150 and have recent flight time.

PA-30 requires 350TT 50ME and 10 Make/Model
Multi engine with IFR ratings.

The 10 hour Make/Model Training can be added for $299.00 per pilot.

C-150 will burn 5-6 gallons per hour.
PA-30 will burn 14-20 gallons per hour.
Using reduced power settings will reduce costs greatly.

van@flywhiteair.com if you have further questions.

Thanks.

$90 an hour dry for a twin isnt too bad. research cheap gas and split with someone, its not a bad deal. I rented a Travel air with a friend for $100 dry and after gas we each paid $87/hr.

Am I doing the right math? You're normal rates are $15K for 100 ME hours.

You're "special" is $8999. At 14 GPH (low), and $4/gallon (low) it works out to $14,600 and at 20 GPH it works out to be $17,000 for the 100 hours if we purchase the fuel.

If you're going to consider it, just buy the normal block...save yourself the time of trying to find the cheapest gas somewhere.

Looks like we made a math error, so I updated the price for now, pending the bosses approval which should not be a problem.

What is the min hr/day charge? Figure I can't dry rent the plane and have it sit in my hanger during the week in Ohio for weekend time building.
