Every day in America, pilots play a vital role in helping their communities. As part of an aggressive new campaign to educate policymakers and opinion leaders, we’re compiling stories that show how vitally important General Aviation (GA) is to America’s economy and local communities. We need to hear your personal story (link)!

General Aviation (GA) stands at a defining moment. If enacted, proposed new fees in the president's budget will be devastating to GA and to the tens of millions of Americans who depend on it every day. To prevail, policymakers need to hear real Americans tell their stories about the important economic benefits of GA. But getting the message out in the media requires resources. That's why we've created the GA Serves America Fund. One hundred percent of your contribution to the GA Serves America Fund will be used to directly support our aggressive education and advocacy effort, and you’ll receive regular updates on the campaign’s progress.

With your help—your story and your contribution—General Aviation (GA) can overcome the greatest challenges of its 100-year history: a budget proposal for costly new user fees, onerous security regulations, urban pressures on small airports, and a negative image of private aircraft as “toy for the rich.” The next time you go to a community airport or fly in a GA airplane, think of your freedoms to use this industry for business and pleasure, and think about the role you can play in protecting it.
