It seems to me there are two ways to read this draft:
1) as a part of AERO. In that case we should focus on how to minimize the
   changes we are making. For example, it doesn't seem to make a lot of sense
   to allocate a /10 just for communication within aviation. 
2) As a far more general overlay network technology. But in that case, there
   should be an archtitecture for the general case. And the draft should
   actually focus on the general case, and have aviation specific parts in
   other drafts. 

Currently, it seems that the draft wants to do 2) but is actually doing 1)
