I love the concept of the career mode and earing money and managing a budget, but the Maintenace costs for say a PC24 or the 737 max are insanely high. In addition, it seems after 10 or 20 flights you are hit with a multi-million dollar repair. I hope Asobo can lessen the insurance and Maintenace cost in Freelance mode so we can buy the better planes and actually enjoy flying.

I would add the CJ4 to the list. After 10 hours of filght you need to change it’s engines and the bill is terrible. It’s completely unbalanced.
I went through my fleet yesterday and fully repaired the Cj4 and PC24 only. All maintenance items were in the green either “new” or “good”. Still spent nearly $3 million per plane bringing them b as ck to “new” status. They can’t have more than 15 hours on each… Engine repairs were well over $1 million alone on each.
I don’t mind making $3-5 million per flight but I wish they has an option for a realistic payouts, costs and maintenance. A flight from Miami to New York doesn’t cost $3 million. In something like a Cj4 or PC24 it would probably be about $15k one way depending on carrier.

Agree. I would prefer fair incomes and fair maintenance costs. It doesn’t make any sense that such high tech engines require 1 million repair maintenances after 15 hours of flight.
