Which would be different from the tax-break-loving and
pension-breaking aviation industry how, exactly?

What GA brings is an understanding of how aviation works absent the
dishonesty being demonstrated by the airlines and their sycophants (ie.
the main issue being airspace congestion vs. runway congestion).

[Note: I'm not against improving airspace utilization, but the way it is
being sold and bundled is dishonest. Worse, I expect the dishonesty to
continue with more blame for GA (and who knows what else) when the
"expected" delay reductions don't occur.]
