Let's see, these guys are burning 100 to 300 gallons/hour at at least $5/hour. The typical flight is perhaps 2 hours so that's about $2,000 for fuel and probably the same in other operating costs. $100 is going to be a major burden? Take a look at the jet traffic at the Superbowl or the Masters. Are they really going to stop flying their Challengers due to a $200 charge. I know corporate aviation and many times there is one or two people on board for a $10,000 flight. Let's get real.
