FAA Funding Debate

 

HOUSE PASSES H.R.2881, - NO USER FEES -

"H.R.2881 is a great model for funding our future aviation system," said AOPA President Phil Boyer. "And the best news for general aviation—no user fees, a modest fuel tax increase for NextGen, and no tax cuts for the airlines.

Bestens gelaufen, der Kampf hat sich gelohnt, bis sicher ins Jahr 2011 werden weiterhin keine Abgaben für die Benutzung des Luftraums und der öffentlichen Airports erhoben, also weiterhin keine Taxen für Flugpläne und auch keine Landegebühren, ausser ein paar wenigen Ausnahmen wie z.B. Miami Intl.
