I decided to fly from my home north of Indianapolis Indiana to visit
family in Lansing Michigan. My trip up was a beautiful, uneventful hour
and a half flight. I was to stay until Friday morning and then return.
The weather on Friday made it impossible to return because of icing
issues. No problem better safe than sorry right... Saturday dawned
much better. Got to the airport to find the plane with a coating of ice
that needed to be removed. My FBO at home takes care of this for free. I
wasn't expecting it to be free but when they finished the job and
presented me with a $462.50 bill I about lost it (**** my pants). Hell
the plane rental for the 3 days wasn't even that much. I paid the bill
and vowed to not go there again.
Any one got any stories of being ripped off? I feel the need to
commiserate... ;-)

Sorry about your experience, glad you got at least partial compensation. I'm
late to the thread, but here's a suggestion: document your experience at
http://www.airnav.com. That's where I look when I want to know what experiences
others have had at a particular FBO. Thanks.
