That site is not maintained by an unbiased organization. The DOT is
trying to get more funding for a wasteful FAA, from a Congress who insists Amtrak is necessary. Rather odd also for a gov't agency to criticize its own programs. You're not even presenting DOT's data fairly, as that site shows per passenger mile funding for rail and transit is huge; for all of aviation a peanut. Unfavorable per/mile comparisons for GA and air carrier is phony too, as GA flys shorter hops. NY to LA in even a T210 is an excellent adventure. By any chance, is your name "Ned?" Well, we don't get French benefits. Fred F. The dollar amount of the federal funding is known with certainty. How they estimate passenger miles, I don't know. Why is this biased? Does AOPA publish its data detailing why FAA funding problems are false? |
