Hi Greg,

I think you misunderstood what I was getting at. I was trying to find a way to compare 1993 rotary operating costs with today.

What was the railroad charging for a single engine charter back in 1993? The $10K that Joe Vigil said was the cost of running the rotary for a day, divided by the price of a single engine charter (?), times the current single engine charter rate($10K) should give us a rough idea of what it would cost to run the rotary today.

You said you paid $12K-$14K but got three engines. Was that for one day or two?
