The concepts of shrinking the market and killing the Golden Goose seems to have escaped these turkeys.

Old Koreelah, please don't be under any other illusion than if we can afford an aeroplane, we we will turn up to the airport in our brand-new super Tesla vehicle, takeoff our Rolex watch, to finish our seafood lunch lobster buffet before we take to the skies after our ramp boy has finished fueling the plane.

 

At least this is the illusion that most councils have when it comes to people who own aircraft !

Sadly true, FB!

In discussion with our local council, I have pointed out that some of we Aero Club members are pensioners. My own plane has cost me about $40k over 15 years, yet the average caravan and 4WD outfit costs many times more- and they get FREE CAMPING and do far more damage to our roads and infrastructure than my little bug smasher ever could.
