  1. And you’re leasing it … and it tattles on you…. it’s the gift that keeps on givin
  2. PTSD, mental health issues, and heart issues are the big VA to FAA gotchas if it recall correctly. to a lesser extent, sleep apnea may mean you get to carry a CPAP machine everywhere you go. It may not be the “easy 50%” or whatever the current gouge is if you plan to keep an FAA medical.
  3. Not unless you happen to have your SUPT grade book printouts around …
  4. Pooping in a cardboard box is weird
  5. PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: if you flew the T-37, it’s time for new hearing aid batteries and a colonoscopy. what?!! get off my lawn WHAT!?
  6. And from the FAA perspective, you’re the “sole operator of the controls” or some such verbiage that lets you log PIC when solo in a T6/T38/F16/F15/A10 before you’re form8 qualled in that aircraft.
  7. T6 solo time as a student is PIC as well. It ain’t much …. But every bit helps.
  8. Consult a tax professional … but I think you’ll have a state tax obligation in all three states without the AD umbrella
  9. Technically you’d need approval from big blue to pick up a second job. and some airlines want you on no-shit terminal … but it’s been a while since I was in your place so I don’t know if that’s changed.
  10. It’s not about the degree itself. it’s about what it takes to get that piece of paper. Being able to manage time, commitment to long term goals, being “trainable,” etc. not saying that’s the only way to get or demonstrate desired qualities….but having a degree is a known quantity.
  11. You’ve clearly never had to get your own atis and it shows! /s
  12. I mean exactly what I said. 700 hrs of TPIC is different if you’re flying a modern automated crewed aircraft, or DV airlift, or a fighter with zero autopilot, or teaching UPT, etc.
  13. What have you been flying on AD? Not all PIC is created equal
  14. I think the root difference you may not understand is that most folks here don’t consider POSSESSION of a weapon to be a direct threat.
  15. Move to a delta base or commute.
  16. Has anyone tried negotiating with the flesh peddlers? Such as “I’ll accept continuation and help out your rated Manning if you waive all my adsc’s”?
  17. I had great success (very nice) with my STATE veterans affairs office. They were tenacious getting after the fed VA and getting shit done.
  18. Meh. how long does it take you to assimilate to the local area when you pcs? A year? 6 months? not necessary to have deep longstanding local roots to be part of the community.
