What GA airports are being subsidized?


Most of them!


What airport? What data did you use to support that conclusion?



We're doing a runway resurfacing. Actually it's more of a rebuilding
of 18/36. Out of about 3/4 million I think the state pays 10%, we
(The city) pay 5% and the Feds the rest.


But the 85% the Feds pay is from taxes on aviation. Where's the subsidy?
