We pay millions into the Aviation Trust Fund and the government finds way to waste it. When they turn to the civilain for profit sector....we get value for money.

It's a lot of $, but you have to admit that they're still as friendly and helpful as ever.

A briefer did mention to me the other day that they're under a lot more pressure now to meet stricter standards. I don't envy them.
