To start with GA is just about the exclusive user of FSS.


Fair enough, though this is pretty much by law (and by TFR).

It is also pretty much the only user of the majority of airports in the
country.


... most of which are self supporting, no? I don't see any airline or
federal aviation funds going into Podunk Municipal Grass Strip.

As Newps point out most airports recieve 95% of their funding from federal
grants. It always surprises me how many pilots think that GA pays it own
way. It is similiar to the myth that the middle class pays the bulk of
taxes.
