Can't argue the facts?

LOL.

The subsidies are massive. I agree with the Bureau of Transportation
statistics study.

You, like the Destroyer, rely on rhetoric. Never quote any numbers, just
silly arguments. The subsidies are obvious, yet all sorts of convoluted
reasoning is used to deny the obvious: MASSIVE TAX SUBSIDIES to GA.
Many studies besides the BTS study have reached this conclusion. Only
advocacy groups, for obvious reasons, deny reality.

BTW, here is what a "professional pilot" thinks about GA:

Sure I can.

Your facts are wrong. ORH (the airport I'm most familiar with) is not a GA
airport, yet you insist on calling the grants there GA subsidies.

See above

So it's only reality when you decide?

Couldn't care less.

It's a fact that you have yet to demonstrate a subsidy to GA. One must
conclude that's because there isn't any.
