    • Pecan farmer in middle Georgia, so pretty much the same thing.
    • There is a huge push in Army aviation to start sending more people to WTI and the weapons course just because we understand the deficiency in the sort of institutional knowledge stovepiped of training. The debrief/AAR process at the weapons course alone was eye opening to the senior leaders we had sit through it. Broad perspective of experience is critical from us slipping back to a pre joint military which I would largely say looking at our procurement strategies we are already doing.

    • Good. The only airline flying I do is sitting in the back.  But I work with enough of the 65+ crowd on a daily basis to know that I don't want them flying me or my family around. Age-related cognitive decline is real.  And those who deny it the most are typically the ones most affected by it. Which is not to say you can't be 65+ and still be capable.  But for every 10 guys who think they're "running circles around all those young whipper-snappers," 9 of them are full of shit.
    • Absolutely there were a dozen better ways this could have been handled. They had him under surveillance including with a GPS tracker on his car so they had no problem doing a traffic stop or his office. This is a decent report that mentions how the agents violated ATF policy and didn't wear body cameras AND put tape over his ring doorbell camera.  https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwj5hPClt-eFAxVW38kDHckADk0QwqsBegQICBAG&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dfu4ifmzq7SI&usg=AOvVaw23t20RA6rsQ0vYD0r_A22m&opi=89978449
    • AETC is. In Georgetown north of Austin. 35 students. A SGTO right now.   Contract initial pilot training (ipt) then a short T-6 syllabus. That means a super DOSS for ppl, ifr then multi tickets then go to a UPT base after.   This isnt a PTN/19 AF thing. It is straight from COMAETC. Although congressional approval would be required to move ton this model and there are a whole lot of risks associated with it.
