Not uncommon. Many NASCAR drivers and other famous personalities such as Rush Limbaugh have had their aircraft removed from sites such as Flightaware.com. I can't say that I blame them, given both the love and the hostility they create for themselves.

If a company is privately held, it has every right to conduct much of its business in private, to include the comings and goings of its airplanes, automobiles, and livestock. A publicly held company gives up some of those rights so that stockholders and potential investors can fairly guage their investment decisions.

But, if a company is owned and operated by the United States Government, as the auto industry aspires to be, then the taxpayers have every right to know how they are spending their time, their money, and their profits. Make up your minds, boys.

The difference is those folks you mentioned are private citizens. GM wants taxpayer money to bail out their incompetence. They are no longer a private business and all of their affairs should be an open book as far as I am concerned. You only get privacy when you use private money.

They aren’t asking to be a Government Owned Company! They are being jerked around by a Congress gone bezerk with outrageous Milage and Oil Policies! Go ahead and kill the last vestiges of Business in the U.S., 67% of Our GNP is just Sales of Products made in Other Countries now, make it 100% and see how Happy You are then!

Whoa there, other n00b. When begging to Uncle Sugar for bailout dough one by definition lacks the means to maintain the corporate jet fleet.

No, they are asking for government money and the government wants to own them by overseeing their business decisions and deciding which products to produce.

They are begging to be jerked around by Congress. If they want to make cars, they need to get into the automobile business and out of the health care and pension business.

You might be very successful on ZERO HUSSEIN’S Team, you seem to think alot on the same terms. They are NOT in the Health are and Pension Business, that is a sideline for the way businesses ran during a very siccessful time. Fools are easy to notice, they usually parrot the DEMORAT talking points! HI!

So, companies facing bankruptcy shouldn't reduce expenses. Gotcha. How long have you been a public servant?

The Democrat laws passed to enable Unions to rape and pillage consumers is suicidal.....and I’m talking 2009-2012.

Yup. I wish they’d declare bankruptcy already and screw the damn unions. I want our big 3 to be successful again.
