Points Out That President Obama Is A Heavy User Of 'Private' Aviation

The National Air Transportation Association (NATA) has issued the third release in the "Coyne's Video Briefings" series titled "Hypocrisy." In this video, NATA President James K. Coyne (pictured, right) asserts that the best way to get the economy moving is to get America moving.

As President Obama prepared to deliver his first State of the Union address, Coyne points out that in his first year as president, Obama has used Air Force One more than any other president in history. He goes on to thank President Obama for setting such a good example, and proving that aviation is, indeed, a vital part of America's economy and essential for doing business, whether for a corporation or a government. "By his personal use of aviation," Coyne says in the video, "he's essentially given the message that yes, private aviation is something that every businessman in America, every leader, every president needs to take advantage of to do his job."

A new video will be released every few weeks and will focus on "hot topics" and important current events affecting the association's membership and the general aviation industry at-large.
 
"These video briefings allow me to speak directly to our members on current political and financial issues affecting their companies," Coyne stated. "I will also be able to provide some candid perspective as to how these issues impact the bottom line of aviation businesses and what actions our members can take to ensure that their companies are protected from new taxes and unnecessary regulations."
