Aero-News Quote of the Day

"Aviation needs all colors and genders… desperately… if it is to survive and grow to be viewed as more inclusive rather than the exclusive aura it pervades up to this point. BUT, no matter how much we need to enhance our diversity, we must do based on truthful, credible efforts that are positively disposed to build a synergistic and cooperative atmosphere in which all of aviation can be viewed as mutually supportive but also willing to engage in critical self-examination when the need strikes… like right now."
