The Obama Administration weighs in on ATC User Fees

The Obama Administration has responded. They don't consider you a beneficiary of the nation's Air Traffic Control system, and therefore want to charge me to use it.

Feel free to cite this in your complaint when someone you know becomes a victim of bad decision making by a pilot who wanted to avoid a $100 fee for safety-related services that benefit everyone.
