AEA, AIA Respond To President Obama's Attack On General Aviation
The President repeatedly made damaging remarks aimed at corporate airplane owners and operators, and he urged Congress to eliminate or reduce tax depreciation schedules for general aviation airplanes, something he agreed to last year as part of the Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act of 2010.

Mr.President: Get real.
It's interesting that he complains about corporate execs flying around in private jets which occassionally does involve personal use, but mostly increases business opportunities. At the same time, Mr. Obama flies around in a Boeing 747 at a cost of 181K per hour just for the cost of the plane. How much of his flying in the next 18 months will be for his "personal" use for campaigning. Speaking of talking out of both sides of your mouth at once!!!! Oh, didnt Michelle and the kids, along with a couple of neieces or nephews just fly to South Africa for some sightseeing??? I bet they didnt go on Continental
@Eric: They probably went on Executive One Foxtrot, which usually is a C-32A which is a B752. I do agree though, that they shouldn't be getting a Boeing 747-8i, as a 777/787 would do perfectly fine. But I do think Obama should use Executive One as much as possible, to save a sh*tload of money, as their country is almost bankrupt.
I heard from the Savage Nation(Michael Savage)Radio program that 'our' U.S. Gov't borrows $58,000 a second. Not said jokingly, but factually.
SMILE. You gotta love it. On our behalf. In our Name. The Citzenry.
It's a Wonderful Life. It's going to get better. INCREMENTALISM.
... comrades.

@Fleagle: do I smell communism? or just an ordinary revolution where the voting system is revolutionized, American Airlines gets a shitload of fines and the MPAA and RIAA getting prohibited?
Ya Think? NOOO.
Weren't We 'told' Years ago by "The Media PROGRAMS" Communism was dead.
How about: Internationalism .
Google "The Frankfurt School" emanating from the University of Chicago in the 1930's. See what you get.
In addition, casually ask some European Eastern Bloc immigrants;
1st Generation proud to be, AMERICANS... German,Czech,Cuban,Russian,
what They think. Observe their response.
How They feel, after coming Here and working so hard to BE, Americans!
Of course `OnFlamez You are, 'pulling my leg' - I detect sarcasm, my friend. Time is short. Life is good. Comfort Zones. OSTRICHISM.
We Won the Viet-Nam debacle THREE different Times.
We were directed NOT to demand Giap's Surrender. He expected it.
The Last TET, the Communists lost 70,000 ! and Giap expected US to request his surrender. And he Would have! Someone in the "West" wanted it to Continue. Up to the dramatic,'Helicopter on the Roof' scene at the American Embassy in Saigon and, the ignominious Rout...
"Bailing", out of S.E.Asia
I knew that flight crew; that Squadron. USMC.
I know the Security officer that was There. USMC.
It's All Up to us. A Republic . . .if we are Interested enough to Keep it.
Democracy is an Inaccurate term but . . . no one seems to care.
BTW - accurate Journalism doesn't exist in the United States anymore.
You have to go Outside, to the foreign press for the truth.
Only one or two outlets here with the nominally straight scoop.
Happy Trails, AirMan!
