difference.

budget

|
| If it wasn't for the airlines and GA 99% of ATC wouldn't
be needed at all.

| As far as controlled airspace, I still have my old
charts

| western states. Today, the same places are all
controlled
| above 1200 feet. But traffic did not increase, it was
just
| the FAA budget.
|
|
| Better take a look at your charts of the western US again.
We have
| tremendous amounts of class G, within 35 miles of my class
C airport the
| class E doesn't start until 10,000. And there's a hell of
a lot more
| traffic out here now than 50 years ago.
|
|
|
| Why do you think the FAA was designed to do what it
does?
|
| Airlines.

I don't need to, it's a ridiculous argument.
