How many miles of roads does your car use, compared to miles
of runway?


Well, that really wasn't my point...

I didn't put a lot of emphasis on it, but what I was getting at was the cost
to register versus the cost of the vehicle being registered.

Aircraft cost more than cars but (it would seem) cost far less to register
on a "per thousand dollars of value" basis.

I was mearly expressing a sense of suprise...I'm certainly not advocating
that pilots dig deeper than they already have to.

And as I said, I'm not an owner so I'm only reacting to the actual numbers
being quoted without a complete understanding of additonal taxes and fees
that go with buying an owning.
