Latest Solar flight in Switzerland: Can it lower my fuel costs?!
Thursday, April 8th, 2010I have a whole website dedicated to the operational costs and comparison of those cost for aircraft.
There are many factors that go into owning a plane and the fact that buying it may be the cheapest part, well the cost of fuel is definitely one if not the most expensive part! I would love to see this technology along with the electric technology continue to develop in aviation, not just for the ‘green effect’ which is great, but for the lowering of so many costs across the board that effect us from the price of fuel and flying. Good luck and great job Bertrand!
