Taxpayers to fund seven billion aviation bill
Washington reports the government will spend about seven billion dollars on aviation in the new fiscal year. Civil and military aviation account for roughly 20 percent of the federal budget, with the Air Force budget alone nearing the European recovery program in size. Private and local spending may push aviation outlays above eight hundred million more, as the Civil Aeronautics Administration plans major airport and navigation investments.
