This Week’s Question |Previous Week’s Answers
PREVIOUS RESULTS ***
With gas taxes and possible user fees up for consideration this year, a lot of people are starting to wonder aloud whether general aviation aircraft put enough tax dollars into the system to compensate for the resources they use. Last week, we put the question to AVweb readers: Does G.A. pay its fair share in taxes?
We expected a pretty negative response to the question, but we weren’t quite prepared for this number: Only 4% ofAVweb readers said No, fuel taxes do not cover G.A.’s impact on the airspace system!
