Here you go. A bunch of dorks in silly flight suits standing in front of a very powerful aircraft......a Cessna 172.
Gotta take issue with this one. My kid was in CAP for a while. Got a ride in a C-5, a Huey, a landing craft on the way to a guided tour of an aircraft carrier...lots of stuff.

He was involved with a highly focused and motivated group of kids who were mentored by a highly focused and motivated group of adults. I'd much rather him hang out with these "dorks" than have him hang out with the skate-punks and stoners. And to a 12 year old, a 172 actually IS cool.

I agree the (required) flight suits are dorky, but considering the benefit of this organization to my son in today's environment, I say "Long live the dorks."
