It appears though, that the true theme of outreach may not have significantly reached those who would most benefit from the effort.

One definition of outreach is to give a kid all of your old training materials and some wise words along the lines of having a backup career if it all goes pear shaped. For example, my good friend Mr Cough agreed in a heartbeat to have a chat with my neighbour's lad who has his sights set on flying for a living. Hopefully one day, that lad will make it.


Having a bunch of rich kids pose for a photo opportunity is not outreach by any definition that I am aware of.
