Florida tax Sun-n-Fun

Copied from AOPA on-line, hope this helps some of you.
FLORIDA OFFICIALS TRY TO CLARIFY CONFUSING TAX LAW
One of general aviation's most friendly states has been looking
decidedly
less so for people who recently purchased aircraft. New owners are
worried
about getting hit with unexpected tax bills from Florida. With the Sun
'n Fun
Fly-In in Lakeland, Fla., just around the corner, confused members have
been
contacting AOPA. The association on March 28 received written
clarification
(http://www.aopa.org/advocacy/articles/2008/080328fl.pdf)
from the state in response to a recent letter from AOPA President Phil
Boyer to Florida Gov. Charlie Crist. Presumably, if a nonresident buys
an airplane in Florida and moves the aircraft out of the state within 10
days, the owner would not be subject to use tax. Read more on AOPA
