Destanie Miller Visits Smith Airport
Destanie stands in the parking lot. Did she learn a lot here?
Lets hope not!
Without pilots and pilot / kid programs most kids don't do much more
than visit the parking lot. Visiting an airport, especially when
they have a personal tour, is an event that can significantly steer a persons
future. When kids are stuck in the parking lot, what do they do?
Smoke? Drink? Talk about bouncing a ball? You guessed
it, everything except talk about technology and good things for the future.
Every pilot needs to take someone by the hand and lead them in the right
direction, give them something to talk about other than sex, drugs and
rock & roll. A visit to an airport not only trains the person
going to the airport, it spills over and teaches, through the excitement
of the visitation experience, other kids who are friends of the visitor. |
