It was 30% from general fund last I saw over AIP funding.
I like our aviation system just like it is, as far as I know we are the only country on earth where basically every town even rural ones has an airfield close by that the general public can use.
Not to mention the utility these fields serve in emergencies etc.
But the majority here seems to think of them as rich man's welfare, what's a guy to do? And the airlines want to repeal the tax so they can pocket it, it's not a pretty picture for GA.
