Sunk cost doesn't matter. You have to apportion sunk costs to the hours
you fly somehow or you aren't calculating the true cost of flying. The
cost per hour of flying in a given year is total costs (fixed & variable)
divided by the number of hours flown that year.



So, the more you fly, the less it costs per hour (which is true even if you
don't include fixed costs like hangers, insurance, and stuff). He's saving
money by making this trip and, thus, reducing the cost per hour of the rest
of the flying he does, right?
