I just received an e-mail from Senator Maria Cantwell telling me that the
proposed user fee of $25 per flight would not impact 90 percent of general
aviation because recreational flights are exempt and so are all turboprop
flights outside of controlled airspace. Golly gee! That means that I can
(in my dreams) fly my turboprop single less than 1200 feet above the ground
over much of the state of Washington for free...turboprop pilots in the
eastern states can descend even lower to smell the roses without paying!

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to how much this computer
geek-millionaire-senator knows about uncontrolled airspace?

$25 extra cost per flight when running a turbo prop - what's the big deal in
the total running costs
