"Over the course of a few days, we talked to a number of
aviators... black, white, male, female, gay, straight, young, old,
civilian and military and no matter our backgrounds and
experiences, I have to tell you that the aviation world could not
possibly be in better shape, "spiritually." Based on all those I
talked to... sometimes on frank and difficult subjects... and
in the aura of one of the most positive events in aviation, we saw
solid evidence that while the times may be hard, the entire
community of flyers -- of any sex, race, background, preference,
experience or persuasion -- looks forward to seeing their dreams
for aviation flourish... and through them, they might do just
that."
