Mental Health issues
2. Everytime I've been to MEPs I've been astonished by the number of young kids who have feared the old ladys working there to "tell us everything!". Everyone starts raising their hand -- "One time when I was 8, I got a strange rash that lasted for 69 minutes and I went to the hospital and I broke my pinky toe, do I need to tell the doctor that??" Or, not that I condone drug usage, but "One time I was around a group of friends and 20 feet away one of them smoked marijuana for a few seconds and my recruiter told me to lie about it". I think the process does its own job of weeding those out via common sense...

The Mach Loop
I had an incentive ride w/ the 494th and went through the Mach Loop. The O-6 that was flying with us got a call once we landed to investigate a report by some civ on the ground calling in a near mid-air collision. It was pure coincidence that he was in the flight with us, and tasked to investigate it. Although, we were no where near a mid air collision. Don't know what the sheep herder on the ground thought he saw...

- Anyone looked at the Boneyard on Google Maps lately?
I believe a few years ago they were trying to limit/restrict flying above it. However, in the past few years I've had my PPL in Tucson, I've flown above it and above DM, within DM/TUS airspace. Just communicated on radio and said photo flight.- Home of The Fighter Pilot
LOL. This and the burger king one had me laughing my ass off, albeit under unfortunate circumstances. PC sucks.- FC1 Physical Information
Funny. OTS Select, did my FC1 at a local MTF. Unless you mean its done during the MFS portion (the neuro-psych part)- FC1 Physical Information
Where/why/how did you guys take an IQ test?- Any cyber-sleuths on here?
Also, they most likely did it from an unprotected wifi they hopped onto. The IP address was probably assigned to some 90 year old grandma's unsecured wifi.- WTF? (**NSFW**)
- Brooks to Wright-Patterson Conversion
Thanks. I actually did my IFC1 at DM AFB thru Flight Med... never did anything similar to MFS (rigorous eye tests + neuro psych)- Brooks to Wright-Patterson Conversion
I am OTS Pilot select. I got my IFC1 approved in June 2011, with a waiver for Hx of asthma. I thought when dudes get theirs approved it says something like 'approved for IFC1 pending MFS'. Mine says stamped in black "Medically Qualified for FC1 (w/ waiver), FC1A(w/ waiver), FCII FCIIU (w/ waiver), FCIII, Comm.. etc etc.. // Signed // AF/SG3P" Did they change the stamp? Do I not need to do MFS eventually?
