"Commercial airline passengers shouldn't continue to subsidize corporate jets," said aviation subcommittee Chairman John D. Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) during a Senate Finance Committee hearing Thursday.
Commercial airline passengers are subsidizing their own access to federal ATC services and facilities. Just because they don't own the airplane and aren't either monitoring the autopilot or passing out the peanuts, that doesn't mean they aren't directly benefiting from having a place to land and a control system in place to keep them from an unwanted meeting with another airliner.
Dumb ass.
