Anyone have any info on this? Say a pilot that lives in GA commuting to NYC. Would he be subject to NY and GA state income tax?

With all the NYC commuters out there I figure somebody has the answer. Thanks
NY can't take a cut if your living somewhere else. We fall under federal law that states if you are a transportation worker and do not do more then 50% of your work in one state then state tax obligations fall to your state of residence. I have flown 15 years out of NY and they have never made even a attempt to tax me.
