Just a guess on my part, but since maintenance is a required/fixed cost, the cost to get it to/from the maintenance event is probably baked into the accounting. Just a guess, like I said, but a logical one. C5 shouldn't have to pay for the fuel to move the airplane. They're just hired to operate it.
But maybe they do. Hell if I know.
I'll also say that reason and logic - at the levels the crews can see - don't often seem to factor into C5's decisionmaking.

A year later, but I guess we have our answer. My condolences to those in LNK affected.

I saw the 175 sittting in IAH with C5 colors. What's the latest on that program and when it might be providing revenue flights?
I can't believe they would not keep DEN open as a 175 base if the program was reasonably close.
All the idle 175s sitting around IAH, sure seems like they need all they help they can to fly them...
Most of the 145 flights I've been on are jam packed full...
