So for a typical light single you'd pay $1400-1500?

Or, worse yet, is it based on gross, where a light single might go
$2400-2600?

If so, that's terrible...

Might want to check decimal point placement ie. move left two.

No registration for aircraft in Colorado. No fee either. (No sales tax
on "aircraft parts" either).

More like $14 to $15. My 2100 lb MGW Maule would be $21 at that rate.

Coffee is only a way of stealing time that should by rights belong to
your slightly older self.

MD has no annual registration fee but socked me for quite a bit when I
moved here as part of a sales tax, even though I didn't buy the plane
here! At least that's a one time fee.

That's the way New Jersey is, but we also have another wrinkle. The sales/usage
tax is waived if the plane is used and purchased from a private owner.

Penny a pound, 3400 pound Bonanza, $34.00
Not all states have state aviation departments or charge a
TAX specifically on airplanes. Most states do have personal
property taxes or business taxes.

California just ups the gas tax (notice how the gas prices drop when
you enter AZ). California also charges you 1% of the aircraft value per
year as property tax and a one time fee of about 8% as sale/use tax.

What the gas price at the pump in California vs AZ though. You'll
notice the state adds something extra for themselves.

My 64 Bonanza is $20 here in Montana. It would have been $50 if it
would have been less than 40 years old. A two seater is also $20.

No charge in NV,
but we do pay "personal property tax" on them

a lot of states wanted to do that after 9/11
but they lost out on "jurisdiction" as most states don't have "air
regulations"
they are all Federal regulations.

I'm probably remembering this incorrectly, but there was a time in
Massachusets or a state up there, where the state wanted to issue state
pilot certificates to pilots. The FAA was not too happy about that, and
it never materialized. I can't remember the state or date...my aviation
law class was a verrry long time ago.
