The Buzzzzzzz

By General Aviation News Staff · July 21, 2006 ·

“There’s a lot of rhetoric about what user fees do or don’t do. In the absence of real information, people will believe anything.”

— Ruth Marlin, executive vice president, National Air Traffic Controllers Association

“We have reached a crossroads in general aviation and our future is unsure.”

— Pete Trabucco, pilot and GA activist

“We welcome Cessna to the LSA market; it is a tremendous impact to see a large player in our sandbox.”

— Sportair USA President Bill Canino on Cessna’s proposed LSA

“The length of debate about a flight maneuver is always inversely proportional to the complexity of maneuver. Thus, if the flight maneuver is simple enough, debate approaches infinity.”
