But let's be honest, the Maj in question will be flying for Delta in 2 years so who the fuck cares?

Was it due to the fear of getting ATIS by yourself? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

I like that the thread I made about UPT female relations has exploded but this one, an actual question is all but ignored Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums

My friends out there have rented hous s off base and they were not that bad. Great view depending on where you go. I mean, with a 15x35 mile island that's about to tip over, you always have an ocean view.

did I miss something, or does every T-6 solo student have to get ATIS/recover/land by themselves?

Buying individual stocks because you heard from your neighbors cousin that you can't lose is the rigged game. Might as well just go to Vegas...at least you'll get free drinks. I own the entire stock market (admittedly, weighted slightly toward small caps) and I sleep well at night.

my favorite quote from co pilots (as the autopilot is on and flying) "hey sir im gonna get ATIS can you take the aircraft?" uh...wat? and no.

We're back to the annual T-1/T-38 dick measuring. Having flown both aircraft there's no argument that the T-38 requires more stick and rudder skills, but that wasn't the point of the T-1. FWIW, this disagreement will be moot in the next decade though because there will be another T-X buy to replace the T-1 and we're going back to Generalized UPT (GUPT). That's the official name. After T-6s some guys will go to Rucker but after that there will be an advanced phase track select.

Don't go with too many people, the island might tip over into the ocean.

It's not about overriding. The JTR only specifies what you get paid. So your commander cannot stop you from getting paid, if it happens. But your commander can order you not to do something that you would get paid for BEFORE you do it, and it would be legal. Then, if you disobeyed, you would still get paid per JTR rules, but you can be punished for not following an order. Two examples. You have a TDY coming up, leaving from an airport 45 minutes away. Commander tells you to use the base shuttle service to save the squadron money. You're a piece of shit, so you just take a cab because you didn't want to use the base long-term parking lot. JTR says you will be reimbursed for the cab. Commander says you get an LOR for telling her you would use the shuttle. Both happen. You, a C-17 AC assigned to UPT, want to take a T-6 to San Francisco for the 2017 Brony convention in the Castro district. Commander says the squadron can't afford it. You tell him you and your hetero life partner, a FAIP, will stay at a friend's house in Alameda to save the squadron mad cash. But when you get there, your FAIP mentor immediately finds himself overwhelmed by a deluge of nonbinary polysexual panda-kin sex addicts. Swept away by the raw sexual fury and unkempt body hair of your fellow Brony convention-goers, you decide to each get your own hotel rooms in the heart of San Fran, where the lodging per diem is a conservative $12,500 per night. After returning to Vance in what can best be described as the moistest T-6 in the fleet, you submit your travel voucher. Seconds later, the lights go out, because your voucher was so expensive the squadron had no choice but you use the pot of money dedicated to utilities to fund your pseudo intra-species erotica vacation. Your commander, who for some reason looks just like a certain purple Clydesdale you got way too close to over the weekend, is reasonably upset. Per JTR rules, you must be reimbursed for the lodging. Per UCMJ and AFI, your commander is entitled to rip off your souvenir unicorn horn and stab it straight through your lying heart. See? Discipline and reimbursement are separate issues.

OK, Start by inverting the last fraction and multiplying: 3x² - 27 .. 8x² ....... 6 ----------- * -------- * ---------- .... 4 ...... 9 - 3x . x² + 3x Now you can do some factoring and canceling: 3(x² - 9) .. 8x² ...... 6 ----------- * -------- * ---------- .... 4 ..... 3(3 - x) . x(x + 3) You can cancel the 4 with the 8, remove the 3's and the x's. (x² - 9) .... 2x ........ 6 ----------- * -------- * ---------- .... 1 ...... (3 - x) . (x + 3) Now x²-9 is a difference of squares which can be rewritten as (x - 3)(x + 3): (x-3)(x+3) .... 2x ........ 6 -------------- * -------- * ---------- ....... 1 ...... (3 - x) . (x + 3) Cancel the x+3: (x - 3) .. 2x .... 6 ------- * -------- * --- ...1 ... (3 - x) .. 1 Now notice if you factor out a -1, you have 3-x which will cancel: -1 .. 2x .. 6 --- * ---- * --- .1 ... 1 ... 1 Multiply across and you get: -12x 217 is the number following 216 and preceding 218. 217 is also a Centered Hexagonal Number.
