Gulfstream's Aviation Career Day Is A Good Flight Path

I am so glad to see that Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation in Savannah, Georgia have changed their attitude about communicating with the general public.

Back in 1995, working as a freelance TV producer for Georgia Public Television on the education TV series GEORGIA STORIES, I contacted Gulfstream's head of public relations about doing a show about them and their excellent aircraft.

The focus was on teaching 8th graders about economics with a history bent. I thought Gulfstream would be a perfect Georgia success story to showcase in our show.

Instead, I was told that Georgia 8th graders were not in their client demographic and that Gulfstream was not interested in working with GPTV on a documentary about their company.
