Landing fees already have this built into the structure, along with waived fees for fuel purchases, etc.

It probably is reasonable to look at occupancy percentage along with engine type, and adjust landing fees based on that. Two out of 18 souls on board with a turbine? High landing fees, divert some to an ATC fund.

Very common. How do you think pilots train to fly such aircraft? Would you prefer pilots not to be trained, or for this type of aircraft to cease service?

I would expect them to do the bulk of their training flights out of airports with minimal congestion and lower landing fees.

They don’t have to be trained in class B airspace to get their type rating.
