Wouldn't the original pilot who got stranded at that airport have accrued
this rental fee regardless if the alternator failed? He had to return,
right? I assume the $270 rental fee is calculated based on flying time,
not
ground time while awaiting repairs?


Are you saying that the original renter should be responsible for the rent
on the return flight? It is not his fault that the airplane broke.
