Why Are Private Jets Being Subsidized By You And Me?
The National Business Aviation Association’s (NBAA) vocal opposition to modernizing the air traffic control (ATC) system has more to do with preserving the status quo for private jet owners than protecting the interests of the flying public. Many of its corporate members have milked a set of tax loopholes that allow private jet owners to lower their tax burden and pass on the cost of their travel to consumers.

The gentleman schilling for the Taxpayer Protection Alliance must have missed the part where the FAA turns over taxpayer-funded system to a private corporation.
I probably didn't miss a thing. He just chose to ignore anything that didn't fit his agenda.
Wow. I hope everyone can clearly see the incredible amount of propaganda here.
Cool to see you here, anyways it's as if general aviation doesn't exist to the public. It's almost like they think it operates under a different system than commercial aviation, is it too much to ask for to have people aware that we exist?
...or to understand that pilots have to come from somewhere. So crazy to me how uneducated and biased some of these writers can be. And yeah, cool seeing people out in the aviation community.
Looking at my ADSB screen, I don't see Corporate jets using 10% of the resources. There is a lot of envy written into this article, and unjustly so. They server a purpose just as any other part of the aviation community. Totally one-sided.
