"In September of 1949, with the change of the Senior Scouts program to Explorers, Air Scouts became Air Explorers. At first, the only initial change was in the name, and in a lower of the age to 14. Later on, in 1953, there would be a change in the advancement program. In 1959, the Air Explorer program was unaffected by the change in the Explorer program becoming Exploring. It would be in October of 1965 that the Air Explorer program as it was know would come to an end, becoming nothing more then another career oriented program of Exploring to be known as Aviation Exploring. Later, the October deadline was extended to March 15, 1966. Air Explorer ProgramThe program of Air Explorers was identical to that of Air Scouts: a pre-flight aeronautics program for older boys inspired by the Air Force, much as the Sea Scout program was inspired by nautical traditions and the Navy."

Air Scouts follow the same basic programme as other Scouts, but they devote certain amounts of time focused on their air activities. Air Scouts often wear a slightly different uniform from the rest of the Scouting movement and/or may have additional badges/insignia. Most air activities are ground-based like visits to airports and air museums, radio controlled model flight, aero modelling and camping on airfields. Depending on age group, country and Scout group the activities can also include parachuting or flights in light aircraft, helicopters, gliders or hot air balloons. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good .

The Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethics has developed seven principles designed to keep the wilderness as it is for generations to come, and should be strictly followed and kept in mind during all camping activities. This includes anything you do to keep yourself and your camp clean." (EMS Schools website). Very Good+ .

Walker, editor and publisher of the Cosmopolitan magazine bought the plans for an early steam-powered vehicle produced by Francis and Freelan Stanley for a price they could not resist: US$250,000 (with all of one car built, but 199 more ordered) , promptly selling half to paving contractor Amzi L. Barber. Their partnership lasted just a fortnight; Walker went on to found Mobile Company of America at the Stanley works in Tarrytown, New York, while Barber moved house to Bridgeport, Connecticut, as Locomobile; the Stanley twins were named general managers. The Stanley twins founded the Stanley Motor Carriage Company in 1902, becoming the sharpest rival to Locomobile. ". Very Good- .
