Just Bought A Plane? STAY OUT OF FLORIDA !

I know Daniel Cheung personally, and he is a straight shooter. The
facts are as stated. The ONLY reason the Meridian owner was charged
with the tax was that he had it at a Florida airport for a few days
while he was there for training. He didn't buy the plane in Florida,
was never a Florida resident, and didn't have any business interests
in Florida.

Someone mentioned that the _one_ identified incident involved an
aircraft that was allegedly a Meridian - I presume they meant a Piper
Meridian - is that correct?

If that is the case, isn't it true that Piper is based in Florida and
its tax "nexus" is therefore Florida?

Was the seller Piper or some other Florida entity for the purposes of
sales tax or not? If not, what state did the seller reside in for sales
tax purposes?

Also, I notice that on Aviation Tax Consultants web page (Danial
Cheung's firm; http://www.aviationtaxconsultants.com/index.html) there
is one article that mentions an incident in Florida that happened in
August 2007:

If this is the same incident, why is it being brought up 7 months later?

I suppose I could contact Daniel Cheung directly, but am hoping you can
supply an answer since you seem to have the information at hand and I
presume he is unfamiliar with Usenet.

Easy 7 months ago zoom was still involved with his lawsuit against SnF and
didn't need to. Now that his lawsuit was dismissed and he lost he needed
something to go after SnF with for his annual SnF rant and this is it.

I'm not sure the Meridian "owner" is the same as this "client" which Daniel
Cheung CPA is referencing. The fact that the Meridian is most certainly
owned by a corporation also muddies the water. The fact that someone paid a
$100K tax bill after "only" $10K in legal fees makes me think their case is
weak. And finally, why are there only vague references to shadowy examples?
Why isn't one N# listed in the examples? Surely if this was so unimaginably
unjust, why is there not a single HARD FACT that can be vetted?
