Default marion blakely

is this the reason for the user fees. http://www.liveatc.net/ watch the video. Because the federals removed limits of arrivals and departures in the afternoon. Now i suppose if they make us pay that somehow reduces their holdups by 20% or so Mrs. blakely says. Tell me please how charging ga can speed things up.. oooooh wait i see . so many of us will not be able to afford to fly there will be less planes in the sky.. im starting to get it.

Default Maybe this is the reason...

It's hard to argue that this doesn't have anything to do with the FAA stance behind it's current funding proposal...

Default Oh the revolving door of politics

You use your time in office to get you aquainted with rich corporate friends who then pay you a million a year to become a lobbyist.

That doesn't look like "conflict of interest to me"...no no perish the thought!

Maybe thats the reason Grandma pays 8 times the cost for heart medication in the US compared to our Canadian cousins.
