*Planning estimate only, not a quotation or promise of capacity. Payload may be reduced by distance, altitude, weather, reserves, cargo geometry and authorisation. Mobilisation, accommodation, special permissions, dangerous goods and exceptional site controls are excluded.

The calculator uses indicative UK launch assumptions: £15/kg established-route reference, current fleet-day minimums and a £2,950 new-route assessment allowance. Final pricing requires route, cargo, airspace and site review.
