Conklin & de Decker announced the latest release of their innovative LIFE CYCLE COST 2011 Volume II. The most comprehensive aircraft budget and financial analysis tool available, LIFE CYCLE COST from Conklin & de Decker, provides aircraft owners, operators, flight department managers, and aircraft consultants with extensive ownership and operating cost data for nearly 400 jets, turboprops, helicopters and piston aircraft.

The LIFE CYCLE COST (LCC) budgeting software is part of a family of aircraft operating & acquisition products developed by Conklin & de Decker that puts all cost aspects of owning and operating an aircraft into one easy-to-use program. Updated aircraft acquisition costs, taxes, fuel, maintenance and all other operating costs are included in this business aviation budgeting tool.
