Premise..

Our site is dedicated to the simple premise that many of us would not be able to fly at all if we had to bear the full and expensive burden of aircraft ownership along with insurance, hangar and annual maintenance cost

All it takes is one or two other pilots in your area to start planning and everyone begins flying again.

Short note from your webmaster

Speaking from personal experience, your webmaster/host has been a participating member of three partnerships and two flying clubs and has 1200 very happy flying hours as a direct result of those associations.

FAA funding and general aviation taxes

On February 14, the Bush Administration released its proposal for changing the funding mechanism for the Federal Aviation Administration. In short, here's what the administration proposal would do:

 
  • Raise general aviation gasoline taxes 366 percent to 70.1 cents per gallon (jet fuel is increased from 21.9 to 70.1 cents per gallon)
     
  • Allow the FAA to impose user fee charges on GA aircraft flying in Class B airspace
  • Allow the FAA to charge landing fees at some 215 airports
  • Charge the airlines user fees, instead of taxes, and reduce the amount the airlines pay to the federal government
  • Create an airline-dominated board to help set user fee rates and run the air traffic control system
  • Allow the FAA to set fees and spending with no recourse to Congress or the courts. (View the text of the Next Generation Air Transportation System Financing Reform Act of 2007.)

Student pilots who have a Mentor to help them through flight training are three times more likely to earn their pilot certificates. That simple fact is the reason that AOPA is beefing up its AOPA Project Pilot program.

"AOPA Project Pilot will help America's pilot population grow by giving student pilots the support they need to complete their training," said AOPA President Phil Boyer. "Since 1980, while the total U.S. population has grown by 25 percent, the pilot population has declined by the same percentage. And, worse, student starts are down by more than twice that rate.

"The United States has, from December 17, 1903, been the world leader in aviation. To keep that distinction, we've got to turn the pilot numbers around, and AOPA Project Pilot is a big step in the right direction."

The program draws on the strength of AOPA's more than 408,000 members, calling on each of them to identify a strong candidate for flight training, help them get started, and support them as they work toward their certificates.

To accomplish that, AOPA Project Pilot provides powerful tools, centered on a new Web site, www.AOPAProjectPilot.org, which helps Mentors keep in touch with their students and track progress while providing support, tips, and encouragement.  More on AOPA Project Pilot...

In the December issue, now in the mail to AOPA members worldwide, you'll read a tale about the hearty souls who revisit the Golden Age of aviation by barnstorming through modern-day Middle America. Through our new Web presence, you can hear the throaty rumble of those big radial engines on a 1929 Travel Air 4000 and a 1929 Fleet.
