From CBS Moneywatch - New Mexico Republican Gov. Susana Martinez vowed to get rid of the state's executive jet plane, and now she will have help from a Colorado-based aviation broker with international reach. The state General Services Department announced Tuesday that it awarded a contract to Wetzel Aviation Inc. to sell the Cessna Citation Bravo. Selling the seven-seat plane has been a priority of Martinez since she took office in January. "I pledged to taxpayers that we would sell the jet and get this symbol of government excess and waste off of the state's books," the governor said in a statement. "This is an important step toward securing a customer, but the job isn't done until the jet is delivered to a new owner." More News New Mexico
