This happened to a Navy T-6 something around 11-12 years ago if I remember correctly. Too high rate of descent on an ELP.True. Heard that part this morning. Shit happens in training sometimes, glad the seats worked as advertised.T-6 production line is still open, the simple answer is right in front of us. 🤷🏼♂️ But also I’ve been in acquisitions and know it’s not that simple, even though it should be. Glad they got out and are okay 🍻I'm not arguing they don't need new iron, but a landing hard enough to break the T-6 gear very well may have broken new iron gear, too.Glad they got out, controlled ejection, new iron people (leaders lurking on this forum), AETC needs it ASAP.Glad they got out. T-6 isn’t aging as gracefully as the Tweet.Laughs in DSG. Still once a year for us part timers.
Yesterday
Got my package submitted by my wing with AFPC giving the thumbs up a couple of weeks ago. Ranked 1/11 in my wing. Looking forward to sitting around and waiting all winter…Everyone twice a year, 2 mile run (or the HAMR), waist measurement is back, interesting times.One more T-7 render, aggressorWith how many cameras are built into vehicles now, it is absurd that every vehicle doesn't have this feature. Why should I need to install some dash cam from amazon when my truck has 6 cameras already?Last week
The once a year test for >90% is gone.In this case I think it could have been worse if he continued inside. They already charged him with fleeing and eluding so they would have claimed exigent circumstances and knocked the door down with guns drawn.I spend a fair amount of time in Florida so this really concerns me in that anyone of us could be staring at a felony in not for the Tesla's cameras. The lengths the system went through to hang this guy even with video evidence are truly scary and it took "only" two years to fire the officer. We all know he was cut loose because of public pressure only and the chief's statement was self-serving B.S. I hope Kevin Finley gets a huge payday. Imagine if he'd just gone inside and followed standard legal advice to not answer the door for the cops. Winter Springs police officer out after viral encounterFiled under: expectation management.It was several people....one wants Osama to come back and bomb the U, another sent all the racist stuff to Williams. For the record, I do not actually believe it is the FSU fan base....my wife is an FSU grad and she is appalled by the comments.Some people are quite dumb - It's not the "fan base," it's one person. It's easy to get caught up in the games, and to be fair football is probably an escape for most people. But at the end of the day, it's just football. (I do remember my entire weekend being ruined when the playoff committee left FSU out a couple years ago. And to be fair, I was angry until we started losing routinely the following season.)I've heard a lot of trash talk (sadly including racists stuff), through the years but I've never heard a fan base wish for Osama Bin Laden to reincarnate and fly a plane into an opponent's university.Interesting that the Navy lets you pick run, bike, or swim while the Air Force sticks with the run. I've been reading up on how fitness test scoring works across the services, and the way people here weigh passing easily against scoring high enough to test only once a year really shows the tradeoff.Saw the Monday Night Football flyoverLots of applications in our office at Beale. More inbound. Where is yours?you're delusional if you don't think EVERY fanbase in America has a version of this.
