Default Using airplane/helicopter in construction business

I have been in the construction business for many years and I was
wondering if any pilots here write off their flights for business.
I've seen a few of our posters in here posting in cunstruction forums,
but never mentioned aircraft use in there.


I made only one flight that qualified, and I found that my tax package has no
allowance for easily writing off such a flight. In order to do that, I would've
had to enter the aircraft as a vehicle, record all the expenses, and write the
actual expenses off. It wasn't worth it for that one flight. If I were using an
aircraft for business even half as much as I use my truck, I would have jumped
through the hoops necessary.
