Aero-News: Quote of the Day

ANN's Quote of the Day usually derives from current news, though we reserve the right to pick quotes out of history that have a bearing on the day's events and issues.

Sometimes, you'll find them timely and in keeping with the content of the day's news... and sometimes, they'll just be thought-provoking.

Reader suggestions and comments are welcome... and if particularly intriguing, timely, or poignant, may themselves become future Quotes of the Day.

Let us hear from you, folks!

Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Why did they waste taxpayer money chartering an advisory committee if they weren’t going to listen to the recommendations? They want to impose 'market based' controls whether or not the industry thinks congestion pricing would be an appropriate way to reduce delays."

Source: Phil Boyer, President of the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association. When it comes to the controversial topic of so-called "congestion pricing," general aviation pilots and commercial airlines stand on common ground. As carriers fight a recent Department of Transportation decision to allow new airport landing fees, AOPA has also vowed to combat any attempt to discriminate against general aviation at the nation's airports.
