Points Out That President Obama Is A Heavy User Of 'Private'
Aviation
The National Air Transportation
Association (NATA) has issued the third release in the "Coyne's
Video Briefings" series titled "Hypocrisy." In this video, NATA
President James K. Coyne (pictured, right) asserts that the
best way to get the economy moving is to get America moving.
As President Obama prepared to deliver his first State of the
Union address, Coyne points out that in his first year as
president, Obama has used Air Force One more than any other
president in history. He goes on to thank President Obama for
setting such a good example, and proving that aviation is, indeed,
a vital part of America's economy and essential for doing business,
whether for a corporation or a government. "By his personal use of
aviation," Coyne says in the video, "he's essentially given the
message that yes, private aviation is something that every
businessman in America, every leader, every president needs to take
advantage of to do his job."
A new video will be released every few weeks and will focus on
"hot topics" and important current events affecting the
association's membership and the general aviation industry
at-large.
"These video briefings allow me to speak directly to our members on
current political and financial issues affecting their companies,"
Coyne stated. "I will also be able to provide some candid
perspective as to how these issues impact the bottom line of
aviation businesses and what actions our members can take to ensure
that their companies are protected from new taxes and unnecessary
regulations."
