The concept of introducing kids to aviation is great, and except for perhaps
the Wings program, is one of the few routes out there. However, the whole
idea of seeing overweight yahoos yelling at a bunch of kids and making them
march around somehow doesn't fit. I've also seen them come into airport
restaurants with their too tight flight suits and swagger around like a
bunch of fighter jocks even though they flew in with a 172.

Yet, the goals are great, and their mission is important. It may be worth
another effort to get them working together again.
