ABSTRACT

Not everyone, of course, in or out of the Air Force, perceives that the institution is in trouble. For some, the instruments appear to be about normal, the bubble is in sight, and nothing more than a little trimming of the controls is needed. For others, the flight is very bumpy right now, sometimes even disorienting, but it is only because of the weather outside. Nothing is intrinsically wrong with the institution; these are rough times, but they, like the weather, will pass if the Air Force stays steady on its course.
