Abstract
Introduction It's going to be another slow day, Bob Ellis, CEO of the Air Zoo thought as he looked out across the 120,000 sq. ft. Air Zoo facility. With attendance declining for the past five years, and the 30th anniversary of the non-profit aviation approaching, Bob, and other members of the board were convinced a new pricing strategy was needed for the Air Zoo. He just wasn't sure if implementing a short-term free admission promotion over the upcoming peak summer season was fiscally feasible. As he returned to his office to prepare for the meeting to present his idea Bob contemplated what effect a free admission price promotion would have on the in terms of its value proposition, brand image, and perhaps more importantly, its operating budget. As these four months accounted for roughly half of the museums yearly revenue a wrong move would be devastating for the Air Zoo. If we do this, thought Bob, least we will get people in the door and hopefully excited about the world of aviation. History The Kalamazoo (Michigan) Aviation History Museum was founded by Pete and Suzanne (Sue) Parish, both of whom were pilots during World War II; Pete with the 1st Marine Division on Guadalcanal, while Sue served in the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP). Sue was one of only 1,074 WASP who earned their silver wings, and she was assigned to test fly repaired aircraft before they were returned to service. After they were married in 1959, Pete and Sue began collecting airplanes. The opened to the public in 1979 with a collection of seven airplanes and a few artifacts from the period. Although the facility has grown considerably since then, the has remained true to its mission which was Preserving the legacy of flight for present and generations, to provide the very best experience possible for everyone, every time, and to make a positive change in people's lives. Over time the became popularly known as the Air Zoo due to the nicknames of the WWII era planes housed at the facility; planes such as the Grumman FM-2 Wildcat, F6F-5 Hellcat, and F8F Bearcat, as well as Sue's infamous desert pink Curtiss P-40N Warhawk, complete with primped eyelashes and bright red lipstick. In 2004 the Air Zoo entered a new era of museums when it moved into its current location, a 120,000 sq. ft. facility. What many called a museum of the future the facility contained a 360-degree, full motion flight simulator, the Midwest's first 4D theatre, a 3D space shuttle experience, and an indoor amusement park with aviation themed rides. In addition to numerous airplanes, including the fastest plane ever built, the SR-71B Blackbird, the Air Zoo hosts traveling aeronautical exhibits, thanks in part to the being an affiliate member of the Smithsonian Institute. In addition, the contained the Fly Buy gift shop, the Kitty Hawk cafe, a research library, and a 28,800 square-foot hand-painted indoor mural. The new Air Zoo was designed to appeal to not only aviation enthusiasts, but more importantly, to the non-enthusiast, which would be by far the largest potential audience. Its design was influence by theme parks and family attractions so too appeal to families with children, most of whom had never been exposed the wonderful story of flight. However, many long-termed visitors questioned the changes and Ellis recounted an encounter with a senior citizen who told him that merry-go-round over there is distracting. It has no place in a museum. Museums should be quiet so people can appreciate the importance of the aircraft. Bob simply replied, You're right. However, as important as the stories are, unless they are shared with today's youth, they are meaningless. Visitor Information Roughly 50 percent of the Air Zoo's visitors were locals, living within 25 miles of Kalamazoo. Another 35 percent live within two hours driving distance, and the remaining 15 percent were visitors from across the United States and Canada. …

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
