    Ugh. I never said anything about being a nav. I also was careful not to say ALL pilots with few flight hours were shitty leaders. Nor did I say a ton of hours makes a good Commander. My bad for flying off on you. Everyone has different points of view on why the Air Force is fucked up. At least we all agree on that.

    Wow! I am impressed. Please tell me more about your IP-ness and experience! Dude, you have no f*ckin' clue.

    I preempted the Shirt by sending out an article on Robin Olds (Pictures included of course). He has come up to me several times and he can't stop looking at the beast above my upper lip. Hasn't mentioned it yet. Winning.

    The problem is that a large majority of Commander's are not actually pilots. Yeah, they have pilot wings, but they have less hours and experience than 90% of the rest of the Squadrons and only flew when they "had to". They checked the boxes, planned the Christmas party and went to all their schools in residence while the rest of their Squadron bros were fighting the war. 20+ years later they are an IP, with 1500 hours and a Group/Wing Commander who never really liked flying in the first place, but loved being attached to their Commander's piss hole.

    I actually learned that apparently "you need talent for TIB. Attitude isn't everything." All in all, I like Jenna Marbles better.

    Thanks guys! Exactly what I was looking for.

    So..... it looks like I won't be able to sell my home and instead will end up renting it for enough to cover my mortgage and the management fees plus a little extra left over. This is a VA loan (refinanced through NBoKC). Have any of you had success in getting another mortgage for a second home in another city (Around a 750ish credit score)? Any advice? Thanks guys.

    That statistic is racist!

    Not specifically, but I have heard that the next round of TFI's will be decided soon.

    Yeah, they did the OUP, OEF, then back to OUP. Then back to OEF for just a quick 77 day which ended up being extended to almost a 180 because they didn't have a pilot to fill the next line. Not sure on all the math, but I know the base was pretty proud of their almost 1:1 deploy/dwell ratio but what the numbers didn't show were all the guys on staff who hadn't deployed for the year, but were still being counted in the numbers. No complaints from me, but I am not the one picking up the burden like these guys are.

    Talking to some of my buddies flying tankers who have been gone over 300 days this year and almost 300 days the year before, they feel underpaid.

    So what is the lawsuit count now I wonder for lowlifes who were "emotionally traumatized" by seeing this on the news?

    If only we could have somehow leaked to Osama's wives that he was looking at porn, maybe they would have handed his lifeless body over to us...

    What about all the potential intelligence we could have exploited by keeping this a secret? At least going through all the computers/papers first before releasing that we got him. To me that seemed dumb.

    You are obviously not the real Kenny Powers. The real KP would tell the TSgt "You're F$#%ing OUT!"

    I laughed my ass off when I heard that story. He was a guard guy, and sadly never made it through boom school.
  20. Duck
    It wasn't me!

    Reminds me of a story about a Boom student at Altus who would call housekeeping to ask for more towels and then be sitting naked wacking it when they came in his room. Actually it didn't remind me of that story, I just wanted to repeat it for your enjoyment.

    From what I have heard from one of my old friends who was recently paroled for good behavior, he is having a blast in T-1s. From every indication he has given there isn't the student/instructor hazing butt pain from upt. Probably for the last part the instructors realize what a raw deal you had and are doing their best to get you back in the air. FWIW.

    Dude, what the hell. Thats it I am going to work in Air Force scrubs. Do they have those? If they do I am going to be in them next week. Whatever, I do what I want.
  24. Duck
    Yeah, but you can't control a UAV from just anywhere... oh wait, yeah you can. Nevermind.

    It isn't about good or bad, it's about trends. People will respond with small improvements into the little things (Blues Monday, PTL issues, AAD degrees or whatever). If we start fixing the little things that are easy to fix, the bigger things will come with time. My opinion only, but I have high hopes for the new CSAF.
