As mentioned in my prior thread about my trip to Hollywood last June, when we were doing a run-up before departing Santa Monica, the tower told us that something had apparently fallen off of our plane and was being dragged behind us, so we taxied back to the tie-down and looked around. A police officer approached us and apparently someone preflighting another plane on the ramp had reported this anomaly. It turns out that they were seeing the retractable step on our plane. So we did a hot start and departed.
Later on, Vector sent an invoice for two departures, 8 minutes apart. I emailed the address on the invoice next to "Email questions to" to explain the situation and request a corrected invoice. I never heard back other than the auto-response that says they will answer my question within 1 business day. In December, they sent a statement for my past-due invoice. I again wrote an email about the erroneous invoice and explained that I won't pay the wrong one, but would be glad to pay a corrected one if they issue it.
It's my understanding that Vector runs their scam at KSMO and KTEB. Anywhere else to avoid?
