The _present_ for of funding is primarily taxes; I prefer the proposed
method of removing ATC out from under the tutalage of Congress and making
it self-supporting. Under the present funding/governance, ATC is dead meat
in a just a few years.


I'm not quite sure why that you think this is so inevitable, but I'll accept
that premise for the sake of discussion.

If we knew that this was the only step down the slippery slope that the new
fee structure was going to take, that might not be so terrible. (unless you
are the turboprop user)

The problem is, that I think it is very likely that this will be the first
of the changes that will lead us down the road towards a system like Europe.
That would be a real shame, and that would be putting it mildly.
