Sorry, I should have said every president since the 1950's. It just hasn't been a problem until recently.
It is total BS that some people (we know who) can use private aircraft, while others get looked down upon for it. I don't know why some of these companies that were made to feel guilty about using private aircraft haven't pointed their fingers back. Our country's finances aren't any better than the bailed out companies.
Also, forgive me for not memorizing the rules to a free and public message board. I have better things to remember. Using common sense I have only committed minor violations.
