The dollar amount seemed a little high unless there was a medevac chopper involved.
I know here in the D/FW area, when CareFlight hits the ignitors on the turbans, it is automatically $10,000.00.
In 2001, the CareFlight aircraft alone were $500.00 per hour to operate. That number was 24 hours a day, not while the aircraft was in flight.
