All of which raises a damn good question about why they spend $200,000/year

to help hold the TSA at bay. If they have to do a big giveaway they ought to
give away flight school scholarships to poor kids. I say take the money and
every year pick 30 kids who show some promise and send them to Embry-Riddle
for a month. Every one of them would be a great story on the local news,
that's a lot of good will you'd buy.



Well, they clearly think it is enough of a promotional item that it
makes them more money and gains more money than it costs....

Maybe it does, I don't have access to that kind of data..
