We're getting old, folks...

Our local EAA group (221) flew 940 young eagles this year. I'm sure this
early life experience will stick with these
kids for a long time. I hope we all work to be sure that they will have
the same opportunities that we have had in the
NAS.
IMHO, the best way to follow up on the young eagles flights, and get the
kids in *learning* to fly, or wanting to have a career in aviation, is to
found an aviation explorers group, or help one out, if there is one near
you.
It keeps the fire lit, and provides that long term push that is necessary to
get into flying, and stay in it.
CAP may be an option, but it would be much harder to start one of those
groups. g
