  1. If he turns a slide green...or less red....then it’s a win for management. stop trying to apply logic, common sense, or reasonability to things. It’ll only give you a headache
  2. If he was enlisted it would be an auto-discharge. Officer....not so much. A pilot in the midst of a shortage .... fuggedaboutit.
  3. You got thru upt and got wings. If the af doesn’t want to release you from your Adsc (out of the kindness of their hearts) then you’re fucked. Be the best finance/LRS officer you can be and try to unfuck some things in those worlds.
  4. If a receipt is required, I always pen and inked the conversion math onto the receipt (including any foreign transaction fees) before I scanned and uploaded. Then claimed everything in good ole USD.
  5. If it doesn’t involve flying, why would: a)the company care? and b)you ask for permission?
  6. Go team you!
  7. If you already have a job lined up, you can Clep out of 3 1/2 days of TAP. Or use that time to work on your apps quietly in the back of the classroom. I turned my airlineapps data into pilotcredentials data and got a call from SWA about a week later. It was a nice weeklong break...
  8. Are they any good?
  9. Go find a night strafe video. Those bulkets go everywhere off the berm
  10. .... I’ll have this whole place unfucked in about a week .... still one one of the most cogent things ever written. Up there with the dear boss letter.
  11. What he said
  12. Take detailed notes.
  13. She can’t touch your va disability I’m told. In Florida, it’s not worth fighting over assets as they will just be split 50/50. Tell your airline .... it may not ever be an issue. But if you do have issues in training they can help.
  14. Welcome to the Air Force! get used to doing everyone else’s job for them.
  15. Semi is generous.
  16. Different wings then (325 FW, 53 WG)? It was enough of a difference that a PCA across the street could keep the flesh peddlers happy.
  17. Read the directions / help for each section for each airline. It varies. Whatever you actually put in, be able to justify it / back it up with paperwork / explain to someone who has never seen an airplane (HR monkey) in terms a 4 year old would understand.
  18. Yup. Sounds right.
  19. Moving your availability date prior to an actual interview is no big deal. Airlines won’t care and likely won’t notice. Folks were getting in trouble, or shown the door, for changes AFTER the interview. Basically they got hired and then said, “oh by the way, i really can’t start in February .... how’s August sound?” If they think you’re being dishonest you’re sunk. Prior to the interview, you can change dates and stuff on your app as you see fit
  20. If you have to choose between the two because of start date conflicts...get your foot in the door with the airlines. The af is hurting for pilots and there will likely be plenty of opportunities to get back into the ftu at a later date.
  21. What mws? if you’re flying fighters, you’ve got 2 yrs and 6-9 months on station at best. Buffs / jstars / etc with only 1 or 2 bases ... still highly unlikely. Look to PCA to a tenet unit or other command on the same base. For example, Tyndall has (had) ACC flying and AFMC flying (wsep). So you could theoretically bounce around the same base. Seymour is similar. Usually for shiny pennies tho. If you want to homestead ... the guard / reserves is really your only plausible option.
