  1. Seriously, I tried reading your post and seeing things from your POV. But it’s just so obvious— you say “not socialism: free college for everyone.” It just simply isn’t true. There is NOTHING free. Everything comes at a cost. You’re describing the government taking wealth from one person and giving it to another. One person pays the cost, another benefits without paying, and the state is sole arbiter. It never works and can’t work, humans reject it.

  2. I like excel. Customizable, stored on the cloud, and I’m not beholden to any apps or formats or subscriptions. Mine has been tweaked for years to accommodate my army flying, GA flying, airline flying, and now AF flying. Took some nerding out, but it’s worked for me since.

  3. ^What he said. I find if you ask them, “Equality outcomes of what?” You’ll get the standard answers then I throw in height/weight/love/friendship and that usually makes them very uncomfortable and change the conversation. There is no end to that road and lots of other people die to establish their “utopia”

  4. Would you not then get paid ivolontary sep to walk out the door even earlier than your UPT ADSC? Almost sounds like a golden ticket.

  5. Same - the only negative was how much time it took to make it, then put all my paper logbook info into it. Once caught up, all I do is grab my phone after a sortie and put in the info before debrief starts...lives in the cloud. There's unlimited customizability for future flying and I don't pay a cent for it.

  7. I don't condone the practice, as I find it part of the reason the AFRC has gone to hell in the aggregate imo. TRs these days don't seem to care as they're too busy gloating about the part time life. They really should care though, as it affects them by proxy. Specifically, lack of discrimination when it comes to vetting these candidates, many horrid AD sycophants have been allowed to come in and ruin the place. That said, I have peers and coworkers who belong to the direct hire demographic, some are good people, others are terrible hiring mistakes. So I know I'm in mixed company. It's nothing personal, I just find it a bad practice in the collective. At any rate, doesn't seem to bother units much anymore due to the hiring dynamics at the airlines. So go fetch and good luck.

  9. Where did clown shoes go? Just when the questions were getting tough he vanished. https://www.politico.com/magazine/amp/story/2018/09/03/what-would-a-socialist-america-look-like-219626 Here's a great look at what our new batch of socialist want. Note that these people are completely unable to articulate the differences between their "plans" and the failed experiments of the past.

  10. Lmao the perfect retort to the use of the word “faggot” is to tell someone to “eat a dick” from the moral high ground hahahahaha! That was classic.

  12. On Thursday AFPC announced that the package due date has been pushed back to 26 October but the board will still meet on time in November. I wonder what the reason for the extension is...

  13. It's an old buddhist martial art called 'edging' bro. Read up on it when you're ready to step up the smash game. BL, when it comes times to (and I quote the legendary Dio here) ride the Tiger, you are inside (not sts) the slam-mat's TC the entire time. They always come back for more. It's the real sport of kings afaic.

  15. Alex Jones much? Maybe talk to some actual Democrats/Independents/Centrists about what they believe and want for this country rather than depend on conservative media to tell you. Are there some people way out in left field? Absolutely. Does the average democrat support open borders, wholesale gun confiscation, or a new world order run by the Soros/Clinton/Obama triumvirate? I wouldn’t be so sure.

  16. Eat a dick. Did I say he should be fired? Nope. I said I didn’t know why anyone would use that term today. I’m guessing you still use things like wetback and whatnot too?
