PUSH BACK ON PUNITIVE POLICIES FOR BUSINESS AVIATION

If you weren’t paying careful attention, you may have missed it: last week, in his State of the Union address address, President Biden referenced troubling new tax proposals for business aviation.

This week, the president has followed through on those comments, with onerous proposals in his annual budget plan that single out the industry for punitive tax treatment, including:



• a five-fold fuel tax increase on business aviation, to $1.06 per gallon

• a change to the depreciation schedule for purchased business aircraft, from 5 years to 7 years.

The budget proposal follows a recent plan unveiled by the IRS for audits on companies using business aircraft, to ensure that “everyone is playing by the same rules.”
