We have a couple of planes that are less than new and that support our
YE events. An airplane is an airplane to the kids. They just want the
flight. Now if there is a bright yellow RV-4 on the line, everyone wants
that.

As for the number of kids per flight, our pilots generally fill the
plane. Unless it is a special event where it will be the pilot and one
child. I have been at a rally where someone was loading up a Cessna
Citation. I may as well be in a airliner.

Excellent point. I was uncomfortable presenting my aircraft for young
eagles flights simply because the paint had gotten pretty bad (Maules
used to have really poor paint jobs). I would never have made those
flights if I suspected that the aircraft was in less than top mechanical
condition.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your

It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.
