As long as we are on the subject of becoming active in Boy Scouts, I should
mention the Explorer program, specifically, the Aviation Explorer program.

Its odd that BSA's site http://www.scouting.org/ doesn't mention
Explorers. I've not heard of them. Usually we try to get older boys
involved in Venture scouting to keep them interested.

It is not the least bit odd. The BSA organizes career programs for
charter organizations such as government agencies or corporations that
may have difficulty with belief in God under the Learning For Life
banner, a subsidiary of the BSA. Exploring and learning for life have
no Oath or Laws as Scouting does. Exploring falls under this banner.
