Ask any Coast Guard Auxiliarist
The Coast Guard Auxiliary does not make any assurances that aircraft will be
accepted as operational facilities nor does it suggest that all qualified will
be accepted into the aviation program as pilots. Fiscal, operational, and
geographical needs of the U. S. Coast Guard are controlling factors in the
Auxiliary Aviation Program.
