The number of hours you fly in a year should help you decide whether you need to buy or rent a private jet. You can consider full ownership if you fly at least 350 to 400 hours per year. In addition to the cost of purchasing a new jet, there are hidden costs, such as, fuel, maintenance, insurance, and staff. Consider these and also the size of jet and flying range you require. If you find that costs are high, you don’t have the time to worry about maintenance, or you require jets of different sizes opt for fractional ownership or simply rent a jet.
You can obtain fractional ownership of a jet by purchasing a share from a jet management company. After this, you just need to pay hourly usage rates and a monthly fee. The company can issue a jet for your use if you provide about five hours’ notice. Renting a private jet is even easier. Most reputed companies offer a membership program that can enable you to choose different jets depending upon the distance, passengers, and cargo involved in each trip.

In addition, there are special offers from the company’s partners including discounted stays in luxury hotels and gift vouchers for shopping. Read the rest of this entry

I see the term “Range In Saw Tooth Mode” for motorized, turbo gliders. Can someone explain what it means?
Jonny B, but if you cut the engine, retract and glide for while, why would the range only be limited to say 300 km?
