I only flew 150 hours last year.
I used an airport maintained (even partially) by taxpayers 3 times. I used no navaids. I'd say I didn't get my money's worth. ticle , xyzzy wrote: What is this massive government spending, protection, and subsidy that makes flying economically feasible and what is the source? Who pays to build and maintain all those airports we fly out of? Who pays to build and maintain all the navaids we depend on? Who pays for all those air traffic controllers that are available for us 24/7? etc. etc. If you honestly think the user fees you pay in taxes on your 100LL cover the cost of your use of this stuff, you are seriously fooling yourself. |
