Well with fuel, help, obamacare thats sounds about right. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 7629176 A small Bell Ranger runs about $600 an hour to operate. That is before you pay for the pilot or make any profit. I know the voices aren't real, but man do they come up with some great ideas! Semper Fi USMC Very much an Occams Razor kind of guy. Bridging the gap between "It can't happen to us" and "We're all going to die". |
