I believe you're missing the smaller picture. TEB has been *small* GA
unfriendly for quite some time now. It's all about money: which makes

for the FBO, a 4 172s or 1 citation?

Right now, MMU is pretty good about small GA. But I predict that this

last long. The best break we "little plane" pilots got in a while in this


I wouldn't call a $35.00 landing/parking/handling fee by Signature the only
FBO small GA friendly


Agreed. A reasonable overnight parking fee ($10 a night ?) I could go
along with but $35 will pretty much guarantee a lot of GA aircraft
will avoid that FBO. In their own way they are contributing to the
extermination of general aviation.

Just as with excessive income taxes, there is a point of diminishing
returns. There somes a point where reducing tax rates actually results
in an overall increase in tax revenues because people start increasing
economic activities. I think some of these FBOs need a little dose of
supply side economic thinking.
