A.N.N. BUSTED! Just Bought A Plane? STAY OUT OF FLORIDA !
Bryan Martin wrote:
Probably because AOPA received a bunch of e-mails from members expressing concern over this issue. Those members probably heard about the issue form the internet through e-mails or web site articles. It could be that the whole issue stated with the ANN article and then snowballed into the present fog of rumor and misinformation mixed with a small grain of fact. Indeed. Here is Phil Boyer's letter to the Florida governer: http://download.aopa.org/epilot/2008/080320fl.pdf In it he explicitly states what motivated the letter: "I am writing because of the rapidly growing concern expressed by our members over what appears to be recent aggressive enforcement of Florida's Use Tax, which has been the subject of numerous articles in the aviation media." Only Aero News Network (ANN) appears to (so far) have any stories on the subject. The AOPA may have been sucked into this tempest the same as many others and is now aggressively trying to cut through the fog to get at the truth. Hopefully they can find out how much substance there is behind ANN's stories. |
