This is true. Good ideas and expertise in CAP frequently start at the bottom and migrate up. We hope those ideas result in projects being funded but that stream goes in the opposite direction, top down. One example (maybe) is the idea of refurbishing 172 and 182 aircraft. Refitting them with interiors, paint, avionics and engines as needed. This was proposed by many of us at least 5 years ago instead of replacing everything with G1000 182's. More bang for the buck was the idea. Two almost new 182's could be funded for the cost of one G1000. 

I'm sure there is a long list of other ideas waiting for a sponsor ($$$).
