Question
Do you pay tax in all the states you fly to. How does that work?

Answer
Hi Mike, no, we don't have to pay taxes to all states. Only the one of our residence. Several states have tried to change this over the years, but none have been successful. This is true even if the pilots main base is in one place and his residence is in another.

Hope this helps,  Ned
