The questions buyers get stuck on, answered with your numbers instead of somebody else's averages.

Every one of these runs in your browser and keeps nothing. No sign-in, no email, no saved profile. The defaults are real numbers rather than flattering ones, because a calculator that makes ownership look easy is worse than no calculator at all.

Being built

Next out of the hangar

Cost of ownership calculator

A full annual budget for a specific type at a specific field — hangar, insurance, annual, engine reserve, fuel and the unscheduled maintenance nobody plans for.

Pre-buy inspection checklist

The list to hand your mechanic, organised the way an inspection actually runs, with the findings that should end a deal marked as such.

Partnership cost splitter

Model a two, three or four-way partnership: what each owner puts in, what each pays monthly, and what happens to the numbers when someone wants out.
