  1. You sound like you read into comments trying to shape some preconceived narrative you’ve already formulated in your head.
  2. Medal of Honor for flying into Venezuela?
  3. The latter. The KC-46 has an upgraded APU from a 767-200 due to the amount of power needed for the RVS system and to mitigate OBIGGS resets. To use power carts, it either takes one bigger external power cart or two of the smaller ones used on the KC-135.

  5. The MRTT also holds eight 463L pallets in the forward and aft lower cargo hold. The KC-46 holds 10 centerline and 18 side-by-side (before that FCIF restricting side-by-side cargo loading due to another Boeing design fuck up). Every KC-46 can do AE missions, unknown about the MRTT because countries either configure them for full cargo hauling with the “cookie sheet” pallets civilian cargo uses or full passenger A330 config. The MRTT also isn’t cleared to refuel conformal fuel tank (CFT) F-16 two-seaters due to the lack of clearance due to the massive size of the boom (STS) compared to the KC-46. Then you have the strategic mission that the KC-135s do, the KC-10s didn’t, and the KC-46s sorta due. Unknown how the MRTT would do that mission. If Boeing fixed the RVS with RVS 2.0, stopped the APUs from prematurely failing, fixed the cargo loading system/cargo floor, the KC-46 wouldn’t be that bad.
  6. Donnie taking some Ls this week. AP NewsLive updates: Supreme Court strikes down Trump’s sweeping...The Supreme Court ruled against President Donald Trump's far-reaching global tariffs on Friday, handing him a significant loss on an issue crucial to his economic agenda.https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/u-k-denying-u-key-204753298.htmlhttps://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/u-k-denying-u-key-204753298.html
  7. Damn, I work in the F-16 SPO at Hill and would've loved to have attended.

  10. My brother was the -135 boom who AR’d the B-1s. He made sure to rep Broncos Country.
  11. Don't quite understand how you came to that conclusion out of reposting that video. I don't know where you've lived, but in the multiple blue and red states I've lived in, currently living in a red state, I've had to show my ID to register to vote. In fact, I registered to vote at the same time I obtained a driver's license in the current state I'm in. So, would you agree that if the SAVES Act passes, and the GOP loses big in the midterms, then Trump should accept that defeat and not claim that the midterms are rigged with voting fraud?
  12. They’re already buying them.
  13. The difference is that you're a citizen of the government that is trying to use eminent domain to take your private property. This is akin to Australia wanting to buy your house; you said no, so they put pressure on your neighbors to coerce you to sell your house to the Aussies.
  14. If someone asks to buy your house and you tell them it’s not for sale, that’s the end of the conversation.
  15. Indiana is machine!
  16. The lone exception is the one I always go to when I’m going back home to Cheyenne. Hence my bad intel.
  17. Real ones know Buc-ee’s doesn’t have Coke products.
  18. Welp
  19. I remember seeing that when I was in OGV. The best part was the CVR recording the idiots in the cockpit making fun of the kid at the firebottle for not having being able to see due to no one having a flashlight.
