you wrote: "We need to put the public back into our local public
airports. After 9/11, people are much shyer about coming onto airport property." Actually, they're not so much shy as intimidated by security guards who treat everyone at the gates as terrorists. The casual observer in most cases can't even stand outside the fence and watch landings and take-offs. Not much to applaud there. AJ |

Except there are lots of airports that don't have gates or fences or
anything. They still are shy about coming on the property. Why? For the same reason I don't walk onto someone elses property, I wasn't invited. Let's invite them. Specifcally targeting the younger crowd. An Open House at the nation's airports, advertising fly-in's to more than just other pilots, etc. It may already be like this in other areas of the country. Just not in mine. |
