It shouldn't really affect you in any case. If you take off in
a plane you know needs to be repaired, you are violating
the FARs as well as the rental policy. Just fly legally and
it won't apply to you.


The part about remaining with the airplane or paying $5/mile (up to the
$1000 maximum...yikes!) certainly would.


Nah. A good lawyer could get you off easy! The way that
clause is written, you're supposed to remain with the plane
for 3 days at the remote location even if what needs to be
repaired is no worse than it was when you took off. And
what does "remain" mean anyway? Sleep in the back seat?

I wouldn't worry about it. It's just some pettifogger's way
of trying to protect themselves after some renter ripped them
off.
