Looks decent. All the drones have the same availability, so that's
not a problem...

Well, based on the previous system for vehicular SIs:

SI Price Range
0.75 2k - 23k (Snooper, Marlin)
1.00 25k - 120k (25k Doberman, 120k Wasp, others are ~50k)
2.00 110k - 210k (Westwind, Cessna C750)
3.00 250k - 350k (Stallion, Beachcraft Patroller)
4.00 580+ (Citymaster)

So, to clean the table up a little:
SI Price Range
0.75 0 - 25 000
1.00 25 000 - 100 000
2.00 100 000 - 200 000
3.00 200 000 - 400 000
4.00 400 000+

Look good?

Yes... I'll probably go over the whole thing myself and work out the
Street Indices too, and then come up with the same results as you did, but
thanks anyway :)
