GA makes Wired magazine

A sign that the plight of GA may have jumped the shark? regardless, it's a reasonably balanced article: http://www.wired.com/cars/coolwheels/news/2009/05/corporatejets0513. My concern is less to do with whether a CEO gets to fly in a cushy jet, but more with respect to what happens to all of the GA centric airports that start to receive less traffic. Repurchasing a corporate jet is much easier than reviving an airport, which, as AOPA would attest to, is nearly impossible once a community decides to close theirs down.

edit:
this just in, we're saved, Oprah says it's "great" to own a private aircraft!
