The only thing I know about the hiring. Is the Poly is the biggest issue.
As far as aircraft go. They change airframes all the time. When I was there they went from Citation 2s to King Airs.
When I was there they had Astars and MD-500s. Then They got a boat load of old Marine UH-1Ns. Then got rid of them.

Thread revival. Are there any AIAs in the house I can DM? Getting up to date information on the program has been challenging. Thanks
What question do you have? I worked with them for 5 years. Miami and Houston branches.
As far as pilots go. They were all military retirees. Working on their second pension. They use to have non pilots in the back. But when I left they got rid of those guys and it was all pilots onboard.
I can’t remember the name of the system. But as GS employees they got paid automatic overtime all the time. For being on call during the week.
I believe they shutdown down the Houston branch after I left. And moved the assets close to the border.
For someone new, they have some real garden spots

1 Year for GE and Pratt to appeal the decision.

2 years worth of flight testing at Edwards.
Air Force asks Congress for funding for the program.
Congress cancels engine program, proposes buying additional B-21s.

Anyone know what status they are being stored in?
Can’t they just sell them to Omega?

They actually talk about in a featurette how much they were trying to make that exact formula from RO work and just couldn’t get it right.
Apparently that trick set a trend that everybody wants to follow so perfectly.
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkThey could have just done the camera spin. Then have everyone speak English and use English terms. Including the French guys.

Watched the new Predator movie on Hulu this weekend.
I wished they had done a Hunt for Red October language scene. But overall, a very good movie.

It's been almost 24 hours. Surprised we haven't heard any Congressman. Declaring that their local Air Guard or Air Reserve unit will have the aircraft based there.
Also. What will happen to the 4 AT-6 and A-29s at Duke and Nellis?

If you are going to have a painting of Admiral Kazansky on the wall.
Why use a cancer survivor era Val Kilmer. Instead of a Wild Bill Hickock era image?

Didn’t the Air Force just pay to have some rebuilt after all the hail damage?

Well as an Ass Kicking Business Man
He did a good job getting a Peace / Trade deal with UAE and Bahrain
Now if he could get Qatar to take the last 40 prisoners at Guantanamo
Then he could show a commercial with Obama saying he would close the prison on his first day in office.
