Down-voted by Huggy...oof.

I'm not known for being concise.

Heard the exact same thing from civilian staff bros, complete toxicity just waiting for him to fire someone. This is Slife's fault for protecting and enabling this sycophant.

It can’t be repeated enough - Biden/Harris admin is completely negligent and incompetent. No rational person sees all of this bullshit and thinks, “yep, we’re on the right track and I want 4 more years of this.”

If that’s the case they’re probably still in the air.

PACAF already surrendered to the Navy, so they have practiced for China.

Not pushing an agenda but posted for context and information Ukraine ‘Conscription Squads’ Grabbing Men off Streets to Fight in War: https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2024/10/06/ukraine-conscription-squads-grabbing-men-off-streets-to-fight-in-war-report/ Like it or not they’re probably reaching a kind of culmination point, whoever becomes POTUS, recognize this and find an acceptable resolution Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They used stealth drywall screws in final assembly...not to mention the stealth APU exhaust or well...the entire engine... It's tech the US hasn't hit yet. Those ghost flames on that paint scheme though!

In other news in a deployed theater near you, Chief mafia is back in full force policing patches instead of, idk, being Chiefs and looking after the welfare of airmen. More concern with that than how our Airmen are affected by Iran and Israel in arguably one of the most unstable times in the Middle East. How we don’t get our asses kicked by China is beyond me.

There's an interview with a town official towards the end. Peter principle in action.

Uh, is two pumps better than four?

Depends on the platform. It had a much bigger bow wave which made it tougher for bigger platforms like the Gunship. As a technique behind the KC-10 I would come in a big low and try to pop up through the bow wave. One cool feature about the KC-10, they have dual pumps. Typically we would hook up with one pump and once we had steady fuel flow, ask for the second pump which increased the offload to 3,000lbs per minute. I did two deployments to Korea and had KC-10's drag us both times. Hickam to Guam taking gas every 45 minutes while you are 10K over Max Weight to get to the ETP...good times.

Equity and climate BS…above actually doing FEMA’s job. But somehow a progressive will tell me this is all Trump’s fault.

Who knew one of them would be Vanderbilt?

Commendable effort…deplorable SA

Well done! That is pure reality and thank you for sharing. No one knows when your times up so enjoy everyday as much as possible. Too many ways to unknowingly depart the fix which is an absolute. Fortunately I myself have been blessed beyond what I deserve and know it. Went thru a normally inconsequential surgical procedure last summer which turned into a debacle (not the medical teams fault, things go awry at times.) Although it was a bit disturbing, my transition to a strong OneLife viewpoint nearly a decade ago stayed the course afterwards. Airline wise it will be different for me than most as I will most likely miss this job as I enjoy most of the attributes that it brings as it fits like a glove beyond the so called work itself. Having two to three weeks off in between or more and wanting to jump back in says a lot. Rather be lucky than good especially when you might be no good 😉 *May you find your sweet spot and relish the time you have. Not everything needs to be rushed. “Live Like You Were Dying” - Tim McGraw song makes sense.
