30 aviation groups have written to President-Elect Donald Trump to encourage him to consider changing how the Federal Aviation Administration is funded.

The group has urged using the Airport and Airways Trust Fund to "upgrade and modernize FAA ’s facilities and air traffic control equipment" This comes as there have been rising concerns that past monies collected are being funneled for non-aviation purposes.
