The news media, sometimes justifiably so, gets the occasional incoming fire for the way general aviation is portrayed. But sometimes -- more often than aviators care to admit -- reporters get it right.
Such is the case of this morning's New York Times which has an inspiring article on soaring -- gliders as we know them.
Positive stories like this can enhance general aviation far better than any politician or any paranoid pilot's organization (are you listening Phil Boyer of AOPA?).
Perhaps it'll do for flying what the media did for men's hats a generation or so ago.
