Our Fleet
Skyline operate a fleet of five aircraft comprising:
We charge our aircraft by the tacho hour. This is calculated as the number of turns made by the propellor in an hour when run at maximum RPM; this offers you, the customer, the choice between getting from A to B quickly or slowing down to a more efficient cruise and enjoying the cost savings. A tacho hour normally translates to around 1 hour and 10 minutes elapsed flying time.
NB. Multiple levels of membership are available, not all give access to members rates across the whole fleet. Please refer to the membership information page for more details.
Please be aware that our prices may have to change from time to time, largely due to fluctuations in the cost of fuel. We endeavour to update this website as soon as possible when prices are revised. Last Updated: 9 November 2006
