My Cirrus SR22 costs me £180 an hour to operate and is comfortable and luxurious enough to offer an air-taxi service, plus has the range. Not sure if there are any air-taxi operators using the SR22 in Europe (there are a couple in the US however) given it is an SEP. However, it certainly doesn't compare to a private jet!

£180 / hr seems pretty cheap for that plane Morgo. I had a quick look on the Cirrus website and it looks like a nice little plane. I wouldn't have thought it had such a long range. What do you use it for leisure, holidays, business?

To be honest I wasn't trying to be flash by using a private jet. i just wanted a flight that suited me, i.e. left from a local airport and that i didn't have to turn up 2 hours early for.
