Our guest found an instructor and aircraft at a smaller, nearby

without an active, proactive interest in flight training EVERYTHING
stops in about ten years.


For GA pilots flying for pleasure, maybe. But a lot of people care
only about aviation as transportation, and that will still be alive
and well in ten years, I suspect.


Who cares what you think? You don't fly
