Aopadoesn't just fight issues at individual airports, we also engage with the FAA on policy issues that affect airports-and how we use them-all across the country. 1.Fuel taxes must fund aviation. The FAA's new rule on the use of state and local fuel tax revenues, saying that the money collected in aviation fuel taxes must be used for aviation purposes, is good for GA airports nationwide. The rule means money raised through aviation operations will be put to work for airports and aviation, instead of funding nonaviation activities. There's been a lot of confusion over this issue, and AOPA is glad the FAA listened.
