cliffy Posted June 9, 2017 Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 So, on a current thread about a Texas airport we see ramp and other fees being $30-$40 range with "Other Fees" Being $5-$15 for the two MEGAs Money that doesn't go to the airport, it just pays for the MEGA building, tugs and tow bars for the jet crowd. Pay us high fees or don't come to this airport that you helped pay for. It reinforces the idea of the "jet set" crowd being ALL pilots to the general public. Anyone with a plane HAS TO BE RICH, SO TAX THEM. JUST LOOK AT THE FACILITY THEY HAVE. Let's fast forward to USER FEES THAT ARE COMING, add them in and I see the death of GA (if it hasn't started already) "SEND US REPORTS OF EXCESSIVE FEES" - What's wrong with that comment? ALL THEY HAVE TO DO IS MAKE THEIR OWN PHONE CALLS AND COLLECT THEIR OWN DATA A LOT FASTER THAN "SEND US REPORTS OF HIGH FEES"!!!!! I've been an AOPA member for a long time but the EAA beat them to alternate certification of appliances And now all they can say is- "send us reports"? These ramp and other fees are going to kill us quicker than cyanide ! Just another name for a Landing Fee. A Landing Fee at an airport we have already paid for with our fuel taxes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
