Squadron Bar

thread to stop the creep from the presidential thread.

In light of our recent livening things up, I thought I'd start a thread that contained the funniest radio calls you've ever heard. These must be real. I know we have done this before, but I'd like to hear some new ones. Dover Approach: Attention all aircraft, previous controller no longer a factor.

Just out of curiosity, how many people on here are contemplating mustache march? I'm only in ROTC now, but enough of my AD friends have got me thinking this will be fun. I'm rather slow in the growing department so me and my roommate started today. I'll even probably be going on spring break with mine. We'll also get the results back from big week while rocking these out. I'll attempt to post some pics once they get good. Good luck growing for everyone man enough to try john.

Anyone hear about Majors not getting a continuation to 20 years after being passed over twice? I am hearing rumors. Has something like this ever happened before? Talk about wrong... kicking out a 15 year officer after recalling 100's of others who had alreay gotten out these the past few years.

Because... airplanes. Saw this concept... ...and wondered with the advantages of V-tails for speed/drag, why not in airliners (yet)?

https://www.businessinsider.com/cbs-explains-nfl-ratings-2016-10 Wow... such a surprise. Maybe people are beginning to have enough of the NFL, and their uneducated, prima donna asshats. Including Goodell.

The dude is 7-1 since taking over and all but one of those wins have been in dramatic fashion. No doubt the Denver defense is playing great and their special teams play has been lights out, but what is your opinion on Tebow?

THIS THREAD HAS BEEN MOVED FROM THE IT'S STAYING INTACT SO THERE WILL ALWAYS BE PROOF THAT CCP/PYB IS A SOCIOPATH AND REMOVING HIM FROM THE FORUMS - WHILE THE WORK OF ONE MODERATOR - WAS AN ACTION SUPPORTED BY A MAJORITY OF THE FORUM MEMBERS. - TORO When this story first broke, I thought it was likely nonsense that the verdict of the high ranking jury was reversed by a general. Just from knowing the moral character of most of the bros, and especially those who make rank, I figured the guy probably did it. Of course I don't know, nor was I on the jury so that doesn't really matter. But after hearing a rumor of this guy looking over a stall to see some chick pi…

I felt a thread all about beer would compliment the gun thread. The premise is simple: drink a beer and rate it based on your own criteria. Weihenstephaner Hefe Weissbier Rating: 6.9 Reason: It was very easy to drink. Smooth, delicious, and pairs well with a variety of food. It starts with a lot of head and it takes awhile to go down (so to speak) . It kind of had an after taste akin to apple sauce and was a little too light for my palette. I recommend it to any fan of IPAs.

Story here. To me this reads like politicians trying to intimidate the appellate process... I remember reading about this case in the Stars and Stripes when the trial was happening and thinking the evidence sounded weak. I have a hard time imagining in the current environment that the NAF would overturn the conviction without good reason.

Anyone here going? If so, look for the guy wearing the "Huggy" nametag, and say hi. After hours, try Fratello's, Acey Deucey, or Charcoal Pit.

This morning, I was reading an interesting Kellogg study on military service and its influence on CEOs (https://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/faculty/benmelech/html/BenmelechPapers/MilitaryCEOs.pdf). As I start planning for my enroute descent to retirement (it's inevitable at some point), I'm wondering what experiences and advice the grey beards have for the transition. The airlines thread is awesome, but that's not the life for everyone. What other options are out there for a pilot with some staff stink, a TS, and an online MBA?

Well, we just had a successfully foray to the Class 6 to stock our new bar. Here's what were packin': Gin: Hendricks Tangueray Tequila: Montezuma Vodka: 3 Olives Skky Bourbon: Woodford Reserve Makers Mark Jeremiah Weed Scotch: Walker Black and Red What's in your bar? Any suggestions for bourbons and single-malt or interesting spirits you've come across? Also, just found out about Jeremiah Weed Sweet Tea, anyone tried it yet?

I am sitting in Atlanta-Hartsfield during a six-hour layover, and I am amazed at all the Army bubbas running around here in their ACUs. There has to be at least a dozen of them in the food court where I am sitting. I know the USAF policy was blues-only if flying commercially, with exceptions of course. But if I had to guess I would say the Army seems to be encouraging its troops to travel on commercial air in ACUs. Is this the result of yet another clever Army recruiting campaign? Or is the Army so anal that it doesn’t allow its troops one set of civilian clothes to wear while traveling on commercial flights? To be honest, it reeks of that beer commercial a whil…

Simple post guys and dolls. I am a guy big on heritage, history, and old-school Air Force shenanigans. Reply with what you think/wish should be brought back to the AF. I'll get it started.

From Fox News.com The Obama administration has asked the military's Joint Chiefs of Staff to cut the Pentagon's budget request for the fiscal year 2010 by more than 10 percent -- about $55 billion -- a senior U.S. defense official tells FOX News. Last year's defense budget was $512 billion. Service chiefs and planners will be spending the weekend "burning the midnight oil" looking at ways to cut the budget -- looking especially at weapons programs, the defense official said. Some overall budget figures are expected to be announced Monday. Obama met Friday at the White House with a small group of military advisers, including Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the…

In the May/June issue of Airman magazine (pg 13), Capt Malinda Hammond, a Reservist with the 136 AW currently assigned to the 455 AEW, is pictured in a sanitized flightsuit with only a US flag and small 'FUBAR' morale patch on! (this is the scanned pic from the magazine) Now the question is, did she know she had it on or was she the victim of some shenanigans? By the way, in the online version of that pic, the morale patch was Photoshopped out! Also, it really shows the professionalism of the USAF/PA in that the "current" issue of Airman on their official web site is from March/April, and it is mid-July! And before anyone screams about my publishi…

Anyone at Tyndall? The Fox news says the eye is going to hit Tyndall. Pics in the eye would be cool, stay safe.
