Thanks man! It was a pleasure! I’ll do another no cost one in the future for you when rates push lower! Jon

Would like to give another shout out to Jon at Trident, just finished a refi with them and it was super easy/seamless, especially compared to the first one I did years ago that wasn’t with Trident. Would absolutely recommend for any mortgage needs.

RVS 2.0 also includes a framework for autonomous AR.

My guess is they will replace immediately what doesn’t work as well as something they might have that works better

But only ones that didn't used to be dudes.

Trump's brother died of complications from alcoholism and he's stated that's why he doesn't drink.

We prefer women as well.

Israeli boom operators are gonna love the KC-46 remote vision system compared to what they currently have, haha.
-
I think a combination of poor contract requirements, and Boeing intentionally delivering a product in need of an immediate upgrades is the recipe. Its a feature, not a bug. The upgrade Boeing has for the KC-46 vision system is phenomenal, they just need the cash stream to flow in.

I think I figured it out. Trump doesn't drink beer. How can anyone trust a dude that can't sip a pint. Communistic if you ask me. I would 100% support a beer drinking dude. Quick poll. Percent of MAGA that drinks beer. And not that Bud Light shit. I estimate 98.99%.

Yeah but I think we could get this done even with the American MIC involved, the Israelis seemed to have this problem solved and operational by likely keeping it simpler https://www.twz.com/air/secretive-israeli-707-tanker-remote-vision-system-revealed-in-long-range-yemen-raid Another potential design and partner South Korean MC-X

I thought the Senate hearing was entertaining

Based on how shitty the -46 system is I have zero desire to ever get gas from a "robo-boom"...

In a world where we can fly a drone from the back of a van wearing FPV goggles over a satellite network somehow we can’t figure out how to see out the ass end of an airplane. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s a good question Automate the boom, have the Co operate it or have a regular boom operator? My druthers would be for a real boom operator but I see the potential of a robo boom Speed of development is key here, go with the least risky but work on options Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So, is it going to fly with a boom operator?
-
Not sure how many of y’all have seen the documentary about John. It’s well worth the watch. He’s always been my favorite comedy actor with Uncle Buck being the pinnacle (filled with heart warming sap at times but plenty of good humor too). He was a big guy but from the movie it appears his heart for others was even bigger. If you have Amazon its available there.

Trump begins mass layoffs of federal workers amid government shutdown

Embraer developing a mil version of the E-190 E2 https://thedefensepost.com/2024/10/08/embraer-military-variant-aircraft/ Tanker version would have some of the engineering work done with this. This conceptual system seems like it would be possible to fit easily into the 190 Article for the USMC to convert to the KC-390 https://www.usni.org/magazines/proceedings/2024/may/new-tactical-tankertransport-aircraft-marine-corps-needs This is probably the service branch that makes the most sense to change out her 130s for 390s.
-
She’s a big disappointment. Not having federal experience may or may not be the primary CF, but regardless, Trump would be smart to fire her and put someone else in. I have no SA on what the bench looks like, I just know she’s been very underwhelming.

Commanders are dropping like flies this year

This was about Pete, but sure, Trump hired him. You say you can think of worse people, I can think of better. Don't we want good people running our country that we served? I keep asking that question. -
