A slap in the face to Ohio GA, and a measure of stupidity by Ohio Lawmakers

pilot's tickets are national, airplanes are personal property, like
cars, and are taxed at the state level.

There's something I don't understand about all this. Why is the State
of Ohio involved in aircraft registrations to begin with? I thought
aircraft were registered with the FAA, at the national level (?).

If at all. No sales tax in Montana and I pay $20 a year for my Bo.
That money goes directly to Montana Aeronautics and takes care of state
owned airports and other worthwhile aviation stuff.

Are you talking about the pilot reg (red file card for 2007), which
costs $10 (plus addl for other things) or the actual a/c registration?
I pay $50 for my C172 !!! How do you get away with $20 for a Bonanza?

The pilot registration is different but that money goes into the same
pot as the aircraft registration cash.

I pay what they ask me too. Your's will go down too when it gets to be
40 years old. My 182 was $50 also.

In Michigan it's based on weight. $1 a hundred be it a Cub or CJ.
I pay $30 on the Deb. A late model A36 might be on the order of $38 to
$40.
