  5. You have bigger problems to take care of if a chick staring at you BECAUSE ITS HER FUCKING JOB to try and take your money (she’s only interested in that, not you, dork) makes you want to cheat on your “hot AF” wife. Grow up, stare at some tits, help pay a lil towards someone’s college tuition, then go home and bang it out on your wife. Like the rest of us adults do. I swear, kids these days...

  6. That kind of bullshit (Chida's post) rarely, if ever, happens in the CAF. In my 11 years, I never saw anything that even slightly amounted to the careerist bullshit that all of my MAF bros told me (and I've read on here). Sure there's the occasional CC who's not great at flying and has turned to perfecting queep, but it's minor when compared to the MAF. It seems like the cultural cancer across the street is so bad even the few good bros who make it to CC are unable to affect change. Grassroots guys - stop playing their game and the game will eventually subside (I know, easier said than done).

  8. Based on experiences and conversations with chief pilots at my airline, I don't think they feel threatened at all by military service. The pay and work related stress disparity is so great for the majority of Guardsman/Reservists now that the chief pilots barely notice the ones who are gaming the system. The incentives to take mil leave are rapidly diminishing. The insignificant few who are not legitimately showing up for military service during military leave aren't enough to influence hiring practices, and is indicative of a poorly functioning military, which only serves to drive more people out. Those who are showing up to military service, even during holidays, are still appreciated by management. Pilots are in short supply, so it's in the best interest of an airline to get their hooks into you now even if you aren't immediately productive... because you will be when you either quit, retire, or get smart and realize your airline gig is an all around better deal.

  11. Look, if you think the USAF could be your key to happiness and fulfillment, it’s not. Expectation management. My USAF career has been nothing like I envisioned when I was in ROTC but back then I was dumb and naive. I learned real quick that my expectations were built on false pretenses. I haven’t always been happy in my 17 years of flying in the USAF but for me it was definitely worth it. Some might have followed my same career path/assignments and been really disappointed. Others ecstatic. “Worth it” is 100% subjective. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

  13. Same d-bag was in the “What are my Chances” sub-forum down-voting everyone else’s comments and suggestions. Just ignore it and it will go away.

  15. LOL Success needs to be redefined. Let's all agree and make it clear to anyone joining the United States Air Force that finishing your commitment, with a Delta follow on assignment is 100% success. If you choose success to be different, that is fvcking fantastic. If you define success as the former, thanks a million and move the fvck on. Talk about having too many generals, when everyone needs to work to be a general. This whole country needs some major fvcking house cleaning. The sooner, the better.

  16. Dude, you're so old...you were old when I joined this board as a stupid student and I'm already old. It's like me talking about the model T when the kid is trying to tell me how cool his Tesla is. If you were subjecting yourself to this monster out cluster of a fvck right now, you'd shoot exactly as many people in the head as you had bullets...minus one. As for the PRF... if the strats had gone down the side in lieu of the worthless "stellar pilot" openers, there would be another entire line to talk about your career. Not saying it's right, or that there is more (as using the UCI shit on there at all would make me think there isn't. (No offense) There should be an entire thread on this forum with successful PRFs.

  17. Caveats. 1. The path that worked for me will not work for you. I started writing my own PRFs. A, it was the times, B, thats what folks did that were a bit out of the core AF (Joint), C, that was the advice I was given as a new Lt from the OG, (3x overall BTZ back when they did Maj BTZ). I made Lt Col with a P while on a joint (other) staff and only a few DPs available. I put all strats on the 1st line, command roles on the 2nd, all awards on the 3rd, and big ticket items in the middle. I understood the game of those times and put the words on PRFs to match. Key point: Included were combat hrs and a combat story of leadership. And thats what combat will do, provide opportunities for the shit to hit the fan (it will, guaranteed) and you to roll in and LEAD. So, if any of you ever get the North Koreans to grant clearance to land US Mil cargo in Pyongyang to deliver humanitarian air after thay have a natural disaster, you get O-5 automatically. Out (3x 10% -OH IPAs this eve)

  19. During my interview at Southwest, the Captain interviewing me point blank asked me if I was considering Guard or Reserves. When I said I wasn’t sure, she told me that I should find a Guard unit and that my Active Duty time was too valuable to throw away. She then said that Southwest loves their Guard/Reserve guys. I thought they weren’t supposed to ask you about this, but she was just giving me professional advice to do both.

  25. Flying fighters is the greatest job ever. Being in the USAF is the price you pay to do it. Once you figure out the game and play it accordingly, you can have a great life flying fighters. If you allow however, the USAF will take all the fun and pound you, your family, your morale and love for flying into the ground. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums
