Spuds,
I do not need, nor desire, class C (or indeed any) controlled airspace, and neither does any VFR pilot. The annexation of communal property (airspace), to the benefit of commercial (airline) interests is not "fair".
The very least those that have aquired our rights (at no expense other than the cost of "lobbying") could do, would be to pay for the cost of managing their own separation requirements.
Please explain why I should pay for their needs.
