Provincial Government Aircraft Raising Eyebrows
"It's a luxory taxpayers can't afford"
8/18/2012
They're calling it the ``gravy plane.'' The Canadian Taxpayers' Federation is calling on the New Brunswick government to sell its plane. The federation says a government aircraft is a luxury taxpayers can't afford in times of economic restraint. It points out that other provinces have already grounded their planes. The twin engine turboprop costs $1500 per hour to operate.
