RE: Pay it forward, the payoff!
i may not have been in the complete PIF mind...but had someone in the same situation of Father and son and little to no resourses - gave them my trainer (complete) and radio and few other items for couple dollars and got him out to the field and start flying - was glad to help out 9 ( <sniff> had to go and buy new trainer the next year for me...kinda missed it hehe)
