BLAKEY TAKES PARTING SHOT AT AIRLINES
(http://www.avweb.com/eletter/archive...ll.html#196129)
Marion Blakey made her last speech
(http://www.faa.gov/news/speeches/new...fm?newsId=9532) as FAA
administrator on Tuesday, before the Washington, D.C., Aero Club. And
it held at least one surprise -- she put the blame for airline delays
squarely on airline scheduling practices that are "out of line with
reality." The airline industry has waged a campaign trying to blame
general aviation aircraft for congestion and delays.

Sounds to me like this shows that the FAA/airline campaign for use
fees to fund NextGen was a lie. Thus no need for any user fees or
ADS-B mandates.
