Dell just posted unexpectedly high profits and announced a layoff of 8000
people at the same time.

Its great for short-term investors but hell for the middle
class.

It's one of the defects in the current capitalist system. Anonymous ownership
of large corporations is a bad thing.

You really are such an idiot. Enjoy Sarco. I am, so far.

Mr Pot, please let me introduce you to Mr. Kettle

But I fail to see in what way and how the French goverment is involved
in that.

You don't see how the French government has made it extremely
expensive for the average French citizen to fly general aviation
aircraft?

Well, flying in France is cheap compared to most other European
countries.

Next week I'm going there, if I can find a rental I'll report what the
costs are.

Jay,

The original statement was:

"France as a whole isn't very favorable
to GA; it was early to enter the aviation field but today many
obstacles make
it extremely difficult to fly for fun in the country."

That's just not true by any kind of measure. France is EXTREMELY
favorable to GA. And it is very easy to fly for fun in the country. It
is more expensive than the US, but compared to many other countries in
Europe, France is doing very well in GA. MX has no idea what he is
talking about (so what else is new?). I have no idea what you base your
view on, either.

I think that Jay is a bit frustrated that his European tour by plane
is very likely not going to happen.
When he finds out what driving costs overhere he and his family
probably end up doing 6000+km in a Fiat Panda or something
similar. ;-)

PS. Have you ever been to Rugen or surroundings? I'm planning to go
there late September for a weekend.
The pireps from eddh makes it look like a nice destination but I do
not know what to expect in the area.

Why would finding a rental be hard in a GA friendly country?

Most rentals in France are club aircraft, for members only.
They do that to keep cost and (as I understand) paperwork down.

It is not difficult to find a rental but to avoid the introduction fee
or contribution to become a club member first.
