Each aircraft will be sold for $230M and total operating costs are 75% of revenues. Assume that revenues and costs occur at year-end with the first revenues (and costs) occurring on Dec 31, 2009. Ignore taxes and assume that there are no terminal year cash flows. Select the earliest year such that the initial investments are completely paid off.
