Airline life is like a stripper. Once to get your hands on her and see how nice she feels, you'll never be able to go back to your ugly, fat bitch wife. Sure, the stripper isn't perfect by any means...but it's oh so much better than your previous witch...

Un-scoreable at ?

I've been told the Eurofighter looks beautiful... on radar at least.

Valid point - but I should serve myself some humble pie here as I wiki'd the Luftwaffe before replying to your post, more combat capability than I thought but in my infinitely correct American opinion they should be more assertive with it. 120+ EF-2000s & 80+ Tornados is not a haymaker of a punch but a helluva jab... Valid. They (the Germans) were interested in V/STOL at one time for dispersed basing to survive an expected Soviet first strike against established bases, kinda surprised they are not still at least somewhat interested in that... Russian cruise missiles and asymmetric attacks could make having some kind of dispersing capability worth the while...

Maybe, maybe not. They've got their almost-new Eurofighters. The UK has a specific role to throw the F-35B into, whereas that's not a capability ze Germans needed a replacement for. The Netherlands has a bunch of F-16s to replace. I'm not saying they're not slacking, just that they might not have been compelled to buy into the JSF for other reasons that NATO partners do have.

shack. There's a gold mine of info here thanks to the OP's question.

Why the screenname change Scoobs?

All of them.

Welcome to AMC. I had 800 hours in 9.5 months my first year at TCM with 280 days TDY, most of it across the pond. Turned around the next year for CPAD, deployed for 120 and airdropped my face off. You're in a good place, trust me. Make the most of it and you will have doors open for you when you need them to. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Just some humorous Saturday night juxtaposition.

He's in UPT. He wants info on airframes and associated lifestyles. Actual pilots in those airframes have commented with information that could be helpful in the future. Hence the term "valuable information". Unless you know about the lifestyles of every airframe in the Air Force... In which case, by all means. Enlighten us.

On your second post, you're going to bash someone who asked an honest question and by all accounts... has helped contribute valuable information to the forum? Seriously? Indeed.

LMAO

The engine is an unscoreable bomb.

Exactly. It builds the idea of a team, and of something bigger than yourself, than the constant whining about entitlements. Giving someone the perspective that it's not just about them, but about the nation as a whole, could go a long way to improving the national dialog.

Agreed but he is not above weakening, distracting, disorienting, intimidating, influencing in ways that border on aggression in several ways. Breaking up the EU to further divide and conquer is probably the long term strategy. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-germany-europe-idUSKBN14R0G8?il=0 All great powers meddle with lesser powers and to some extent push or probe other great powers but his tactics and goals cross lines we (usually) don't. Good article on whether or not NATO serves our or their purpose of collective defense: https://www.forbes.com/sites/dougbandow/2016/02/03/obama-wants-u-s-to-spend-more-on-europes-defense-europeans-should-pay-instead/#1b726effb949 There's good place to put assets that could come home from Europe:

How about a compromise and I lose just a little money chasing loose women?

If you're going to be a C-17 guy, the last thing you want is a lawyer wife that's drained your cash on a new car. You'll need income to pay for the flock of bastard children you have in Rota/Constanta/Germany, etc.

It's a car. Take a best guess about what you think is needed. If you PCS somewhere and it's not the right vehicle, trade it in and get something else.

You, my friend, are a gentleman and scholar. I've been fortunate enough to score my slot already but this is a great service to the community. My one recommendation to update your script is if you change the "posted" date for the boards to the actual application deadline or at least include that in the homepage table. (That's more importanter info, my 2c)

Staff Officer, Pentagon 1. Ops Tempo/Deployment M-F, 0730-1630. Deployments aren’t too common…mainly because they are good deal to Staff Officers as they get them out of the building for months at a time. 2. Lifestyle/ Family Stability Stable. You can expect to be home every night, as well as most weekends. That is unless you work in the Engine Room or Joint Staff, then you can expect to work 0630-1930 M-F, and sometimes on weekends. You’ll find yourself making unnecessary dental appointments just to get out of the office 3. Community morale You work behind a desk in a small cubicle, far removed from anything with wings or rotors. 4. Advancements & Future of the airframe You’re well on your way to your next rank, especially if you’ve mastered TMT. The future of the Staff Officer is bright…they’ll always needs someone to write pointless bullet background papers, and recycle power point briefings. 5. Preferred PCS locations N/A

I wonder which three air frames would come up... Must just be a crazy theory.

Why are guys so hung up on the airlines? Are they worried that after 3 years they could be told to walk? Is the airline lifestyle that inticing or is the AGR lifestyle not worth it even for the guys who commute? As far as the fed government retirement the Army guys don't seem to complain. Maybe it's the lack of airline opportunity or supporting the guys on the ground mentality. Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk

I'm a little late to the fight here but dude, your engrish is f'ing terrible. Seriously guys?

I'm not sure what "valuable information" you're referring to. You should reread his comment history. Seriously.
