Default AOPA article: Piston pilots pay no user fee, but IFR's pay $25

Is this an optimistic interpretation, or the text meant something
else?


Even if the interpretation is correct, don't think for a moment that
piston-engined aircraft would be permanently exempt. Eventually everyone
would pay the fee, and the fee would increase regularly. Your only hope is
that the fee will not be implemented in the first place. Once it's there, it
can only get worse, never better.

I hope the bill that is getting to be passed is not worded this way.


Have you written to your representatives and senators in Congress to tell them
what you think?
