Awaken on this bright and cheery morn, and traipse happily to
the airport. Rolling back the hangar door, push your nimble craft
eagerly out into the dawn’s light, anxious for the
exhilaration that comes when you wing into the lofty blue. Prop now
turning, nod your headset-coiffed head as golden rays kiss the
yawning world below. One thought comes to your exuberant mind:
it’s April 15th. What will this airplane do to my taxes?
"We've lost that 'Holy cow, we've been to the moon. Our kids
don't know they've lost it, but the teachers do. This project can
bring it back. As good as it will be for our students, what better
way to tell teachers how important they are."
