How to calculate the cargo price?

Post by AirNubeiro » Wed Jul 08, 2020 1:05 pm

Hi! I was wondering what´s the multiplication factor for cargo. In my resume I can see that the more nm you fly, the less is the multiplication factor but then the system multiplies it with the nm and that gives you a specific factor per Kg. Does someone know what are the calculations for that factor?

Cheers

Here are some examples:

LEST - LECO (24m)
LEST - LEBL (477nm)
LEST - EDDF (820nm)

LEST - LECO => 2.47v$/100nm x Distance (24nm) x Cargo
LEST - LEBL => 0.32v$/100nm x Distance (477nm) x Cargo
LEST - EDDF => 0.17v$/100nm x Distance (820nm) x Cargo


How does the system calculates these factors (2.47 ; 0.32 ; and 0.17) ????? Is there a specific formula? What are these factors based on?
