That all makes sense, really good info there.
This is how I was planning on implementing it - Fixed weekly cost for each family. And then we have the per aircraft cost on top of that, which is what we have now.
That would be correct.
Still not sure how A/B/C/D checks will work in this game since it's real time. I think we had a discussion on that a while ago. I'll have to find it and read through it again.

There is real savings there for airlines.

Every time the plane lands, you have to pay the mechanics to inspect the plane, check the log books, change tires, rotate the data disks, advise the pilot during the preflight, pushback/engine starts, etc.
