But now you're there, and the
lawyers eat you.

Why? On what basis?


Because you're tasty.

It's a figure of speech, but...You (would have) signed a contract stating you
would perform certain actions under certain circumstances. You are now in
those circumstances (through no fault of your own) and must perform. If you
choose not to, then the FBO can exact payment. If you refuse to pay, the FBO
can sue you or threaten to do so. Breach of contract.

Whether this is smart or not is irrelevant. They can.

So, you're in the hot seat, depending only on their kindness (and the kindness
of their legal advisor, the same one that drew up the contract to begin with)

As you can see, the contract has many ways to be interpreted. That's where
lawyers make money. And that money comes from you.
