World hourly from US operators: AirCharterAdvisors $3,000-$3,750/h; Paramount Business Jets ~$3,500/h; FlyCraft ~$3,229/h. BR figure is an estimate derived from Flapper light-jet flight-leg quotes (no direct Encore listing): Citation CJ1 GRU-EZE R$114,020 / 2h55 ~ R$39k block-hr (~$7.2k/h at R$5.4/USD); Citation XLS GRU-MDE R$513,000 / 7h20 (one stop) ~ R$70k block-hr (~$13k/h). Encore sits between CJ1 and XLS; BR flight quotes include positioning, airport/FBO fees, taxes and minimum-leg, so effective per-hour runs well above world bare hourly. Treat BR band as indicative.

Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.
