| My oldest just joined CAP. They are working on getting my dh to be a pilot for them over there. Just wondering if anyone else has kids or a dh involved in it. |

| My DH was in CAP during his high school years. He enjoyed it and it helped him get into the Air Force Academy, which eventually led to a military pilot slot. A very good investment! Last edited by lucky in love; 09-11-2007 at 01:17 PM. Reason: spelling correction |

| No, after 9/11 and all the mess that followed, he decided against going into aviation as a career. He just flies for fun now when he can.

| Thanks, I am hoping not to end up with all my kids being pilots. Don't get me wrong, I love mine but would hate to see them struggle like my dh has through his life. I missed 13 years of it but his stories remind me of that movie with Tom Hanks where he is stuck in the airport eating crackers and ketchup. LOL! Not what a mom wants for her kids. I am pretty sure my youngest will be a pilot or a Wiggle.

| No they are local chapters in the community if you go to Civil Air Patrol Online you should be able to look up the group for your area.
