Default GA User fees

Jose: I don't have a plan. I'm simply trying to debunk the AOPA nonsense
about AV gas taxes being an efficient and fair funding mechanism that
covers the cost of the GA subsidies.


Well, you are doing so from erronious premises.

Seems like, from your new argument about GA reliever airports providing
indirect benefit to commercial airports, you agree that GA airports are
subsidized.


No, I don't know whether they are or not; my point is that it doesn't
matter. Airports do not exist in a vacuum; they are part of a national
system, serving the group with the most political clout. A cost here
generates a savings there; you cannot reasonably separate the two.

But, next week, I
will enjoy the tax subsidies when we are soaring above CT in the 172.


Whatchadoing up this way? I'll have some taxi info soon; meanwhile
consider which FBO you will arrive at - they are on opposite sides of
the field. Reliant is on one side, and Arrow and Executive Air are on
the other.
