Re:"NBAA said the current system of fuel taxes is proven and efficient."
GOOD OLE U.S.ofA...
This is how the cost of the 'Flight Service' we used to have WAS funded.
Then the 'great evangelist' of the day said that these taxes should be abandoned and Flight Service made to disappear....
"Think of the money you will save - Your Safety Will Be Enhanced, And It Will Cost You LESS......
Well, has it..??
And so, it came to pass that the taxes (levy) on Avgas was abandoned and so was Flight Service, and MOST of the services to G/A...
Now, the taxes on fuel are back......and for what..??
What service or justification is there for G/A..??
"NBAA said the current system of fuel taxes is proven and efficient."
Only in the Good Ole U.S.ofA.......
And they still provide 'worthy' / comprehensive..(?) services to G/A..!!
(
Did I ever say 'Thanks for the redundo...??)
Cheers
