AFAIK, the big traffic increases are coming from increased use of business
jets trying to join in where the scheduled players are already trying to
crowd each other out in order to lose money on every flight. Let's say we
want a $20 fee per flight for using the IFR system. Would it not be easier
just to raise the fuel tax a penny or two? That would raise the same amount
would it not?



I fly VFR, rarely use ATC beyond the control tower. heh heh heh.


Dont expect the existing fuel taxes to be repealed in favor of user fees...
