Fear for the Future of General Aviation

super user is absolutely right . . . sorry for getting off track but some of us see the" train a-comin' . . . and are truly frustrated . I will do better . Sorry

Bill James

don't think for a moment the general aviation usage/ industry will not be affected soon by the feckless fools now leading ? our country. The Pres has already started the cataclysmic march to economic horror. The cancelling of the Keystone pipeline is the kickoff . . . They say 11000 people will be unemployed hell , they aren't considering the thousands that service that project ! As jobs disappear, it will quickly eliminate the financial capability to use and enjoy a not inexpensive use of private aircraft . . (FBO's can't exist without GA ). the majority of these pilots are middle class , not wealthy ! Our factory jobs that Trump miraculously started bringing back are already on notice of coming demise . The Democrats are nuts and The weak kneed Republicans are as useless as tits on a boar ! I am ashamed to make these statements and not have a clue as to how to fight this coming hell . . . .Our leaders are happy to feather their plush feather beds . Read Abraham Lincolns "Lyceum speech" if you want a wake-up fist to the gut . . . .the part that says " how then shall we see the approach of danger "

Runaway Dem climate changers, tree huggers have wind in their sails now and will do whatever makes others mad, uncomfortable or make our heads explode. Low hanging fruit will be first, lawn mowers, weedwhackers, leaf blowers, model airplane engines and old general aviation airplanes. Only big airline training schools will get a pass for the next generation of pilots, the AF supply train of future pilots is drying up with reduction in manned aircraft as they transition to drones and space command.

I agree with Ronald, it isn't climate change. Follow the money. The quantity of 100LL is so small, production is an irritant for oil companies. If GA had the volume of automobiles, the problem would have been solved.
