    Idleaire closes

    81 million may sound like allot of money but if it costs you 85 million to operate it is still a loss. It may sound easy to say they charged to much but life isn't that simple. They have construction, upkeep, fees for tv and sattilite to pay. Add in employees, taxes, management, interest on...

    On duty time includes waiting to be dispatched.

    I always thought the no forced dispatch thing had more to do with the independent contractor status than anything else.
