Yesterday evening Ron and I participated in a stakeholders' conference call to align the various GA groups position to oppose the upcoming ATC privatization bill by Sen Shuster. The call was attended by all of the alphabet groups and make owners' associations along with a few senators. In the next couple of days, you will see a call to action to oppose this bill from NBAA, EAA, AOPA,NATC and others. Sen Shuster's bill will put control of the ATC system into the hands of the Commercial carriers without oversight by the taxpayers, albeit disguised as a NFP corporation with representatives from "all" groups. Bill Shuster is in a hurry to get this on the floor before the public can be made aware of the facts, and believe the myth that the government cannot oversee anything successfully. He stands to gain on this politically and is his motivation undoubtedly. Over the last decade, this lure has been thrown at the public many times unsuccessfully, but the lobbyist continue the pressure. When you see the call to action, please give consideration to take the time and contact your Senators. Lets not be bullied. Myths and Fact Surrounding Air Traffic Control Corporatization.pdf
