huh?

I guess pilots can be grouped into two groups: one group that loves to
fly,
the destination is completely unimportant, the other group doesn't
understand
the love of flying.

It doesn't take long for most people to get bored going up and just boring
holes in the sky. Might be OK for those that only fly 20 hours a year but I
doubt there are many that fly 100+ hours a year just to see the same scenery
flight, after flight, after flight. I have seen many lose interest not long
after passing the check ride due to boredom. Seems to me one way to
increase interest is to develop destinations and groups to sponsor fly-outs
and other activities. The late 40s, 50s and 60s saw a lot of this type of
activity, a healthy GA and lotsa airport activity. For the most part that
is not so today.
