I"m not so worried about user fees directly. What I don't understand is
how in the world they will collect them. Do you read a credit card over
the radio before getting your approach clearance? You can't charge it
based on N number because renter pilots often go away after flying (and
paying) for the trips they intended. Will my Mooney partner and I have
to sit down and go through a statement, trying to figure out who was
flying when? Not to mention the entire giant building full of
accounting types who have to mange the system for the feds. I guess the
fuel tax is just too easy and doesn't create enough life-time jobs in
the gov't.
