I wonder how the state would react once sued for theft by conversion ?

- - - (calling it a "property tax" and then trying to collect it)

California will try and collect taxes on anything and sometimes people just pay it. It is funny when you confront them most times they back down. I had an employee who lives in Los Angeles proper and is in sales and they tried to tax him on his salary saying he had a business in L.A. County. He had a lawyer send them a letter and that was all he heard from them. I guess most people back down and pay it and it's going to get worse with the people in power now

The states all have inspectors that make sure airplanes keep at airports
are registered correctly and have paid the appropriate taxes.>>>

Worse than true!

I had parked my plane in California for a week for engine work. The
next month I got a bill from the Calif. taxation department for personal
property tax. I suggested they shove it and they suggested that they
would file a lien on the aircraft title until the tax was paid. The
plane was seen at an airport when their inspector was taking inventory
and was therefore subject to Calif. taxation. Took weeks of calls and
letters and documents to convince them I did not live and the aircraft
was not based in California.

So yes they have inspectors but they are happy to collect inappropriate
taxes as well. :-(
