  1. Is anyone really arguing that flying heavies is hard (I’m a heavy guy. It’s not hard)? Just quit being a dick to your tanker that’s all. Sometimes they have to turn through the sun. And sometimes your tanker just sucks. And sometimes the fighter guy breaks the boom nozzle off in his hole. Carry on. 😎
  2. Flew Tweets with Carlos. Dang.
  3. By not doing it you tell your O-5 board to pass you over please.
  4. That’s because we have people getting up in front of the Chief and SECAF and saying it’s not about the money. It is about the money. It’s also about other stuff. But it is 100% about the money. And that’s ok.
  5. If you like your bonus you can keep your bonus.
  6. This is where you lost me. When the Director of the FBI says something, it's not "sorta like a recommendation." Now when an internet lawyer says something, yeah, that's sorta like a recommendation.
  7. Maybe if a guy/gal does a FAIP tour the war will be over when he/she finishes. Ever think of that, huh? :-/
  8. fake news.... We'll always have Al Udeid to bash. https://twitter.com/USAFCENT/status/977938539315949568
  9. https://www.debka.com/the-us-liquidates-its-two-main-mid-east-air-bases-at-incirlik-and-al-udeid/ Saw this posted on a friend's Facespace. No idea how legit a news source Debka is tho... BL: US quitting Turkey and Qatar.
  10. From what I saw there is only one contact solo and one form solo. So, cost/benefit till someone drives one into the dirt I guess.
  11. What, no more friendly shoulder punches?
  12. Did anyone go to the OBOGS brief at KRND Friday? I missed it. A WIC TPS guy did some studies on OBOGS physios and was going to get some info out.
  13. College football and basketball at the top schools has lost all semblance of amateur athletics. At this point, IMO, the only solution is to create a semi-pro farm system for the NFL and NBA. Let schools that want to be part of that opt in and pay their players. That way we can at least stop the charade.
  14. Shoot, I had a single digit PCSM and am pretty sure my PT score is 10 points better now than 15 years ago.
  15. starting next year...
  16. Meh, just print more money. That's what I'd do.
  17. Agree. My response was that I don’t mind not making Lt Col but I need pay to more or less keep up with the time in service and experience. But I also said the bonus would need to double. I’m well past V-1 on that kind of decision as well so it’s only academic really.
  18. What the AF needs is a good Tommy Callahan Fancy Guarantee.
  19. What is this black magic?
  20. Flying in the Air Force is a good job. It pays well. At least once you make Major, which is a foregone conclusion now. There are costs. Some are high. Guard flying sounds like it is a lot more fun than Active Duty flying. The Air Force has a way of sucking fun out of everything, including flying sometimes.
  21. Running an influence campaign against the United States is not "hacking" an election. Hacking an election implies that the Russians somehow manipulated the vote count by accessing databases and/or voting machines and creating and/or deleting votes. Is that what you're claiming happened?
  22. This is painful as I’m sitting in MPF right now waiting to be called up to get my new ID.... I hope get out of here before lunch.
  23. I’d hate to see what the O-3s got... :-D
  24. How do you figure? I'd say national service is on a different plane than slavery, but what do I know?
