I'd like to see AVGAS and AVTUR duty scrapped on the basis the money this government has raised doesn't appear to be re-invested into developing and providing services in aviation infrastructure for the general public - specifically free landing/approach fees, reduced CAA fees, and the presence of a widespread Class-E airspace system to provide separation to light aircraft in IMC.
Sure. Which hospitals should be closed to fund this unnecessary air traffic service and to subsidise your hobby?
