  1. Yeah, how about I show you a summer of $30k plus paychecks month after month with 15 days off and no BS to deal with… tell me you can’t find a sense of purpose. They abused my sense of purpose, now I’m in it for me. Go to the show!!!! Oh and enjoy roll call in the heritage room with the boys on Sunday of drill doing the real work part time on your own terms.
  2. If you don’t have your airline apps in already, you’re behind the curve.
  3. Saw an IG meme summarizing a recent event at Littlerock. Sounds like leadership was down on their hands and knees pleading for pilots to stay and not go to the airlines. Anyone that was there have first hand intel? It’s a glorious event if true.
  4. I actually did do two years USNR. All valid points and hence why I’m now ANG.
  5. As a Hornet guy in the guard now, the USAF aus way more F’d up. The FNAEB process isn’t perfect, but it’s way more democratic/pragmatic. Just look at the outcome of the sky writers. You telling me the USAF would’ve ever let them keep their wings, let alone keep flying?
  6. Low transition = suck the gear up as early as possible, stay as low as possible on the deck while gaining all the knots you can, pull up at end of runway, look cool. Doesnt work if you yank the gear with minimal flying speed and settle back down onto the runway.
  7. Supposed known problem child trying to show off, settled onto the deck attempting a low tranny.
  8. Heard from a reliable source it went down as advertised, failed low transition. Jet may be a strike.
  9. SFOs are fun. Spend a day at NFL and you’ll see at least a 100 being done.
  10. Then how’d he even sign for the jet?! I suspect the lack of use of his hand was the fear installed from SAPR training.
  11. This would be consistent with what everyone who saw it thought was a low transition gone wrong. Still hard to believe it couldn’t fly away on one, it was a cool day and DA shouldn’t have been a factor.
