	General Aviation Security - Protecting All Americans and Their Freedom to Fly
		A comprehensive range of proven measures are in place to secure America's General Aviation aircraft and airports from potential acts of terror.

		The airlines' argument that their passengers are subsidizing general aviation's use of the air traffic system may be true, but not to the extent that justifies raising fuel taxes from 21.8 cents per gallon to 70 cents per gallon and creating new fees.
