Default Getting new members

Same thing when I worked for Lockheed (before the mergers). I was not
allowed to fly for company business. Fear of the headlines - FLAMING
LOCKHEED EMPLOYEES RAIN DOWN ON YUPPIE DAY CARE CENTER. And the CEO at the
time was an SSA member...

I tried to do this at the high school located on Edwards AFB (of all

using the flight school that the USAF Test Pilot School contracts with
and whom I have worked with for more than 25 years. School management
and their lawyers went completely apoplectic. The students, their
parent, and I had to sign all sorts of documents that we would never
do such a thing nor speak of flying ever again in class. I recall
that we were also forbidden to even think about it, at least in
school.



SarcasmWell, I guess the Air Force doesn't need pilots anymore, so no
use getting people interested in flying./Sarcasm Tell me it ain't so!!
