Well, Matt who do you think would run it then?
Take a look at the composition of the Air Traffic Procedures Advisory
Committee. AOPA has a representative. NBAA has a representative. ALPA
has a representative. Continental has a representative. United has a
representative. Airline Dispatchers have a representative. Southwest
Pilots' has a representative. The FAA has a representative (and we've
seen exactly where the FAA stands on relevant issues).
But this wouldn't be biased in favor of airlines at the expense of GA.
And what does GA bring to a procedures committee?
Here again the spamcan drivers want a spot at the trough, but don't even
want to pay for FSS services for which they provide about 10% of the
funding.
