I m sure I ve only touched on the issue, and I may be mistaken on parts of
it, but I believe our society today is not at all conducive to the
interest, passion and overall satisfaction in an activity like flying. *Do
children today still have dreams they are flying? Can society really wear
us down to where this age-old yearning no longer has meaning, and ceases to
exist?


Oh it exists and in many people who quietly in the background get on
with their flying.
But for the majority flying yourself is an uncomfortable thought with
papers filled with accidents sensationalised to the N'th degree.
The local Aero Club has a full and expanding membership. The
Commercial Pilot School is running almost full classes.

Positive mental attitude as Harry would say, people are still wanting
to learn to fly :-)

Harry Potter? For casting the Patronus maybe, not flying.

Oh, well if it makes your friend better, Harry took a dump off his
broom when being chased by the Hungarian Horntail, a very acrobatic
sequence of broomstick maneuvering. Much of fit scud running.

Think of it. Full yaw, pitch and roll with no controls!

Seriously, there have been several projects where the broomstick was
used as a model, then a prototype, for aircraft. Jet prop of course.
Drones are RCs broomsticks with small wings.
