Not sure that I understand that. Based on the above aircraft operating costs are fuel and aircraft variable - a total of 7,200. 20% of that is 1,440 - compared to depreciation of 1,384. Admittedly some of the depreciation would not be aircraft related but there isn't a huge difference.
Pretty hard to look at it re depreciation with Qantas having $14B of assets of which many are not aircraft. Fuel and Opex account for half of total expenditure, how many new aircraft would be funded by that saving??
Its all hypothetical of course, but when we are in a record year for new aircraft orders, $1440M of savings would allow four 777 to be bought at list!
