Look at the smile on this young girl.  She is sitting in the pilots seat of a c-130 hercules cargo airplane.  Do you think she's learning anything?  Is this an experience that she is going to get by just staying at home?  Her life is changed from this day on.  She can say, "Been there, Done That."

Barchetta is learning about the C-130 Hercules

Another reason for developing conservation is that when a kid is talking about the good times that they had at the air show, they're not talking about sex and drugs.  There's only so much time in a day.  When a portion of this time is being occupied by talking about airplanes, there is less time for talk about unrefined, ill-bred, common, vulgar subjects.

If you are fighting a battle, one of your strategic moves would to be to keep the enemy busy doing matters other than expanding their cause.    The battle here is against drugs, profanity and premarital sex.  When a kid talks about airplanes, they are not only spending time, they are spreading the excitement about airplanes and teaching others about the knowledge that they gained. 

This is why we need to keep these kids busy with technology, a subject that a kid can build their future on.  A subject that is the last stronghold of the American economy.
