Does he get a watch and scarf?

I think we need to stop kidding ourselves that anyone in senior leadership is concerned with actual skillsets or experience. What is happening is very simple: We can't maintain the jets we have and we can't acquire new ones in a reasonable timeframe. At the same time we must keep the slides green at all costs. The only answer left (short of offloading the entire operation to the civilian world) is to retcon what a UPT grad is. It costs AETC nothing to churn out crap and dump it into b-courses across the other MAJCOMs. B-course instructors will still wash out the weak swimmers, but at that point finding them a new home is an ACC/AMC/AFSOC/AFGSC problem. AETC's hands are clean (on paper) and the brass at Randolph have figured this out. They can even pitch the UPT cuts as #innovation and cost saving to keep the (even more out of touch) GOs in the Pentagon happy.

Now I'm hearing it was a recruiter...

Video without having to go to Facebook. Looks like the canopy landed on the back of the jet...still sitting there as he taxied back to parking. Rear seat still smoking...I guess he/she got the full ride! AQMaJyCMc_233nvxeiAODeOwwEuAiq9Vri1TK7WR2uG0yGiaLhNPl4cLUy5A8BhYrqls1nYnW_bw4UCOY0sbKPVLxkFKid3TAVVesf5PAr4FAg.mp4

If PAO, they’ll probably use a picture of a MiG-29 when they report the story.

Rumor is it was a PAO...

You are going to have spell out SRO and RMRcc. I'm not a gun collector. I've only done military handgun qual far too many years ago, the school in Artesia and requal shoots for the FFDO program.

If you train with the RDS, it's great. If you don't, it's slower. Get the biggest optic you can fit in your setup. My SRO is so much nicer than my RMRcc, but I can't really put an SRO on a Shield.

Currently got open sights (set up like the FFDO weapon) but contemplating a red dot on a Glock 19 and I've never shot optics on a hand gun. Opinions for and against red dot sights.....and..... Go.

Go sit next to the line and make better offers if the gun is worth it

Just saw a video on Facebook, Mass ANG F-15D had a backseater depart the jet on the ground via the ACES II. Heard it was a incentive or FAM flight. Not 100% sure on details. https://www.facebook.com/reel/4192170774392209/?app=fbl

And his path to doing this is to abdicate the majority of the training to the civilian Part 141 world… We have a hard enough time right now making these young officers into military pilots. So yes, let’s take away more time spent in a military aviation training program….that’ll do it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What's your favorite Woody Allen movie?

Also, a lot of let’s just say “bad gouge” in this video, at least as per a friend in the know in Army Reserve Aviation. But still a pretty big shift in the way the Army does things.

Kinda difficult to hold her attention when her idea of 'focus' is looking over both your shoulders at the same time.

You misspelled "extreme democrats and extreme republicans"

I can only infer that you're making reference to his irresponsible use of unsecure messaging apps to communicate secret information. Of course that should be punished / not tolerated. And here is me, a guy on the right, plainly saying so. Whether or not that deserves prison is a whole different discussion though. Probably boils down to intent. The difference between what he did (irresponsible) and what Schiff attempted to do is a universe of difference though. If you can't see objectively see that, you're beyond redemption. Now, if you can look at what Schiff has done and say, yeah, that amounts to attempting to illegitimately undermine the president of the US and that is wrong and should be severely punished, then there's probably hope for you. If all you can do though is point at Pete Hegseth, and go "what about this guy?" then I got nothing for you.

One good thing recently. A signed peace agreement from Azerbaijan after 30 years (or more) of them murdering Christians in Armenia.

I have an H&K 416 22lr that has the same issue. It does not like CCI 22lr at all; have used Magtech with it after the first time I shot it and it's fed great ever since.

When it comes to washing ppl out I can understand doing due diligence. I'm more curious if the number of hooks in B-course/MQT are increasing, decreasing, or staying the same. I'm concerned the standards/CTS aren't being fully upheld because IPs feel bad for studs because they're getting shorted at UPT.

Yes, BUT...I do have one in my safe that I wouldn't trust as a fishing weight. I'd happily drive down to Dallas for $150. Best price I would probably get for it.
