The study contains a series of estimating equations for determining the operating costs for large four-engine jet aircraft. Designed for jet transport aircraft these equations apply to the present day high speed, sub-sonic variety such as the Douglas DC-8 and the Boeing 707. Because these aircraft were designed for long flight segments, the equations characteristically yield optimal results under these service conditions. The equations are developed for a typical flight distance of 1455 miles domestically and 1980 miles internationally. The equations are generally applicable to other flight distances but in certain instances tend to be less reliable for short segments.
