Summary:

According to the General Services Administration (GSA), federal civilian agencies own at least 1,300 aircraft with an estimated value of $2 billion. Conservatively, these aircraft cost at least $750 million annually to operate and maintain. Although top-level officials' use of government aircraft for personal travel and other questionable purposes has received considerable media attention recently, such practices are not new. GAO work during the past 15 years has documented many long-standing examples of mismanagement and inefficient use of government civilian aircraft. This testimony summarizes past GAO work in this area and discusses the status of executive branch reforms to date.
