  1. What’s that saying from dodgeball? Duck, dove, dip, dodge and deflect all questions? Rep. Gates sure called him out on his hypocrisy for sure.
  2. That is somewhat correct, they have just moved the board to line up with the SCOD, and there will be 2 O5 boards this year due to the SCOD changes. Nobody says big blue makes logical decisions some times. The O-3 SCOD was too close to when the MLR got the prf’s.
  3. I’ve had these for years and love them. Tried on the Rocky’s and couldn’t get my foot in them, but those boots are great. Now only if we could go back to the black boots.
  4. Let’s not forget his evaluator aircraft commander in the bio, this whole thing is poorly written anyway.
  5. When are they going to figure out this issue and correct it? Oh maybe go like the navy with this tactic? https://www.foxnews.com/media/us-navy-platformed-drag-queen-influencer-attract-youth-military-hiring-crisis
  6. Yeah about 5 years late, this should have been what it needed to be in 16 when the wave started. Keep rolling it out later and later. Even with the new catch them earlier attempt it’s not going to slow the bleeding talent.
  7. A email I saw today from A1 on this said mid May for the legacy one and the new test option soon after that. Good luck.
  8. He didn’t know. He found out after he retired when the mpf called him telling him he needs to come back in to get a different retiree I’d since the regs changed. Yes he was active duty. He still got the high three. Just didn’t have O-4 on the full 3 years. If he knew I don’t think it would have changed a single thing
  9. It has been this way for at least a year. Buddy retired as an O-4, prior E and didn’t have the 3 years pinned on.
  10. 2nd on reading Devotion, the movie was decent and worth the 3.25 in the desert. It left a lot out on the humor of Jessie Brown and his desire to fly and his up bringing. The flying scenes are decent and the director did his best to use actual planes and sets vs cgi completely like Red Tails. If you’ve got Paramount + watch it.
  11. 🖕🏻@FourFans130, you learned that the hard way didn’t you? but so true. Never trust a nav, especially ones that become pilots right?
  12. ~420 for an O-4 with dependents at Dyess.
  13. Well if you haven’t heard by now Delta just made the bonus obsolete completely. They have now expanded when they will hire us from active duty. This was posted on their Pilot recruiting FB page, along with a story about it on their website as well. At Delta Air Lines, we are committed to recruiting, hiring, and retaining top talent from the U.S. Armed Forces to better serve those who served us. As part of this commitment, we are proud to announce that we will begin interviewing and extending conditional job offers (CJOs) to retiring full-time active-duty military and full-time Active Guard Reserve (AGR) members, as an expansion of the previous process. For all other military members, we will also begin interview processes and extending CJOs to successful candidates 12 months prior to their availability date. “This process expansion will allow retiring service members to secure a job at Delta Air Lines while finishing up their patriotic duties over a period of up to two years and up to one year for all other military members,” said John Laughter, E.V.P. and Chief of Operations. “This will provide our service members and their families with the security of a career lined up and ready, while they make a life transition and get settled in the next chapter of their lives. On behalf of the entire Delta family, thank you for your service.” If you are a veteran, active-duty military, or active-duty military approaching retirement, visit our skills translator website below, which will match the skills and specialties you earned in the military to open positions at Delta Air Lines. https://www.military.com/mst/delta/mos-translator
  14. border-patrol-agents-nab-dozen-suspected-terrorists-southern-border-august Not exactly shocked at this one bit. It was only a matter of time before we started catching some trying to cross the “closed” southern border.
  15. Seat all the way up and it should be fine. We have plenty of vertically challenged people flying the Herk that haven’t complained about the hud issue. But if they get the Oregon aero cushion make sure it has the cut out in it like the west does. Btw the hud is projected from the ceiling not off the dash like a fighter si that’s why it doesn’t adjust. Does the hud in the airliners adjust?
