And that too

I thought the only reason all the EXs were 2 seat is that Boeing hasn’t had a single seat version of the -15 in production for quite some time. It was easier to continue the production line with the two seat model.

I believe the extra seat was for follow on capabilities of unmanned wingmen and etc.

The Claremont Institute submitted an amicus brief to the Supreme Court regarding birthright citizenship. You could look up the exact brief if you want to read it with all of its legal mumbo jumbo, but on their website they have a civilian friendly version that makes the exact same points. This is an issue I had never done any reading on, but their case is so much more comprehensive and definite than I expected. https://americanmind.org/features/the-case-against-birthright-citizenship-2/birthright-citizenship-game-on/ Of course you never really know what's going to happen with the supreme Court, but this case seems a lot less nebulous than Roe v Wade or the Chevron deference case. This alone would be a legal victory that justifies all of the usual Trump antics we've seen up to this point.

Does beg the question why the entire order was for family models.

It is good for a single squadron guard base airspace, but hardly one of the largest complexes in the US and I think it'll show itself to be inadequate for the EX. I think the MOA is only like 40 miles wide which will be a problem and unless they can move some of the jetways the high altitude is too short for a long look. Just off the top of the nugget of airspaces I've used that I'm pretty sure are considerably larger: the UTTR, NTTR, San Diego west coast complex, Edwards, basically the entire East Coast from Boston to Orlando, Berry Goldwater, Holloman, Gulf Coast, Hawaii, and Alaska. And many of those airspaces are multiple times larger than Alpena and just the one's I've used, I'm sure there are more. Overall the Alpena complex is great for A-10s, ok for F-16s, but hardly what the EX needs.

Having flown both with and without a WSO, I'd take the extra gas instead.

"They are obviously going to follow what the supreme Court said." Keep trying, bub. You'll get it right eventually.

He didn't say that. And if he did, he didn't mean that. And if he did, you didn't understand it. And if you did, it's not a big deal. And if it is, others have said worse!

At some point you are going to have to be honest with your whining. I know that day isn't today, but seriously, this is about as stupid as saying Obama thought there were more than 50 states. The question in this interview is obviously about whether the due process of the Constitution applies to the deportation of illegals. You either didn't listen to the interview, or you are too stupid to interpret a simple conversation. Or you're just a bitter liar.

Give the old man a break. Its been 3 months since he did this, so he may be having a senior moment.

I agree, 100%. Additionally, it amazes me that there are still military folks who will defend and promote a president who doesn’t support or defend the Constitution. When asked point blank (at 2:08), “don’t you need to uphold the Constitution of the United States as President?” Trump answered “I don’t know.”

Yep, a lot of new ones are PVC.

It'll work this time...

Are those new patches made of rubber?

It amazes me that there are still military folks who will defend and promote a political party that includes socialists and communists. If Bernie Sanders ran against Trump, would they vote for Sanders? WTFO

UCT 25-14

We had a dude plant one of these in the commanders office. Hilarious.
