Nothing would be funnier than SMU and Texas Tech becoming the new juggernauts of the sport.

This is something I thought of, but have never looked into, how big are UCT classes compared to UPT classes?

Same point was made the other night on ESPN. Talk of firing the current Alabama couch and what his buyout would cost per contract, turns out when your boosters aren’t making oil or Fortune 500 money and your fan base largely shops at dollar general, you can’t afford nice things.

I’ve read he’s on the museum’s board, too

Just get ready for the NEW new curriculum…

Just finished the Cowboys documentary on Netflix. Really glad they grabbed Jimmy Johnson or FSU’s legacy would’ve been in jeopardy!

"NYC college students learning ‘How to Steal’ — as class teaches ‘line between private property and public good is drawn in blood’." True. Take my property and there will be blood.

“Clearance is as follows, Djibouti Djibouti!” “Line up and take off behind the A330”

That’s what they need to nail their asses to the wall with, 1500 PILOTS not just graduates

They'll get through a partial SGTO and call it good. Just like with the IPT/FUPT fiasco that is ramping up quickly.

Was in Arlington, TX for a few baseball games earlier this year, and literally a five minute walk from the National Medal of Honor Museum, and I flat refused to visit it due to the lack of a sufficient Chapman exhibit! "Chapman's photo hangs on a wall near a monitor playing the drone footage at the new museum — part of a larger exhibit on the timeline of the Medal of Honor, while Slabinski is among several service members who have their own featured exhibits. Slabinski's section is filled with multiple photos and artifacts — like his field knife, ID tag, combat trousers and dress white uniform." "CBS News attempted to reach Slabinski, whose wife also works at the museum, several times but never heard back." https://www.cbsnews.com/news/master-sgt-john-chapman-national-medal-of-honor-museum-controversy/

Or Dudette! 😉

What the cherry on top is someone (probably eventually the taxpayer) paying hyper inflated tuition for that.

So you want 1500 pilots a year...timeline is an issue...and you pick the Italians to test it. RIght... They are known for their rigid attention to time after all. Next we should send our maintainers to Alfa Romeo to learn how to do vehicle electronics.

Curious to see how the new IPT and track-less CSO course changes things. I'm going to be a Guard nav, but it seems like the new curriculum is a different ball game compared to past iterations.

That's legit!!

“Station calling Djibouti???!!?”

I was being a bit tongue in cheek…y’all are thirsty for these car porn pics. Unfortunately no supercar lives under our roof. A meager LO206 kart is the best we can muster. Kid was in the seat, had to ‘shop her out.

I just flew a trip to Venice with a Captain born in Bologna, Italy. Obviously he speaks fluent Italian. He could not understand the heavily accented Italian controllers speaking English just like the other two of us in the cockpit. Kind of hilarious.

Ok they are running a trial / experiment, is that the environment where you are going to get data that you can use to make policy? A training program, run in a foreign country, in a jet that the USAF does / has not flown and flown I suspect primarily with non US military IPs… this is not going to be the process you will use, is it really a representative test? If it were a USA based USAF instructed in an aircraft the USAF operated and/or was ready to run a larger training program in if the SGTO batch worked out, that were truly representative of an average student pilot and not some ringers they hand pick I think you would have a better case to run with this idea. Edit: no offense intended to DirkDiggler, just posting my two cents on the experiment and it’s execution being conducted

A Chinese national was recently detained after entering Kadena AB via Gate 2. I'll add the link once it works.

Good afternoon, everyone. Has anyone heard from Tulsa yet? I’m guessing it’ll take a while to sift through apps, but the first rush is rapidly approaching. I hope to see y’all there!

One hard part imho will be mixing with manned aircraft at un-towered and minimal equipped ATC facilities at many 3rd world airports

Well if you've ever briefed/executed/debriefed with Italians you know exactly how it's gonna go.
