How This Cost Estimate is Calculated

The StratosIQ Haversine Pricing Engine calculates this estimate using real-time data, not guesswork. We factor in:

• Aircraft performance specs, including fuel burn and payload limits for the Citation Latitude.
• Operator benchmarks from ARGUS and Wyvern-rated Part 135 carriers.
• All-inclusive pricing: Federal Excise Tax (FET 7.5%), segment fees, and handling are factored into the range.
