Keep the bonus money AND get to the airlines earlier? That would definitely be a pro Air Force move.

My wife and I along with another couple are going to be there all weekend. We’re renting an RV and they are bringing their airstream. Got two spots at one of the RV grounds about 15 minutes away. If anybody else is attending we should setup a little BO meet.

Anybody going to the COTA race?

Huggy I’m surprised you didn’t know...he’s one of us now!

Nope. And nope for Navy/Marine at Vance. You’re best bet is to grow a mustache, become fluent in Italian, and start smoking heavily...then go to Sheppard.

If you’re a T-1 stud: 69% chance of a C-17 then rest is 1-2 AFSOC, couple wide body ISR, rest tankers. If you’re a T-38 stud with a pulse (even if it’s faint) probably a Viper but 33.3% repeating chance of a 5th gen; the other 1-3 studs will get a bomber. If you’re at Laughlin, 87% chance you get FAIPd. Better yet, if you’re at Vance or Columbus...you could FAIP to XL!

My googling has been limited, but why get the vaccine if you’ve already had the virus? CDC has no clue how long the vaccine will remain effective and has no clue how long the antibodies from COVID exposure will be retained by the body. Is it just to be extra “safe”?

Clearly this a polarizing issue and there’s only one way to truly solve this. SUPER DRINK OFF!

I heard that’s how you catch bass. Or was it bass?

“You’ve got to think of your own health, which is really very important, but you got to think about your societal obligation, including people close to you personally as well as other members of families of other individuals,” Fauci said. You’re coming in broken and stupid, say again.

Still somewhat unbelievable that there was no mention of 11R in the PSDM. I’m not an 11R so I have no clue as to what their life is really like or how their manning is perceived by those in the trenches...but to not even offer a bonus is a pretty bold move. Whether by design or through some sheer dumb publishing/copy +paste error it sends a very clear message. “Do you want ants?”

Don’t have a picture handy, but for real this time: Tier 1 Initial 11F/B/S/M, CSAR FW & HC-130s 5-7 years: $25k/yr with $100k up front option 8-12 years: $35k/yr with $200k up front option Tier 2 Initial CSAR RW 5-7 years: $15k/yr 8-12 years: $25k/yr Tier 3 Initial 11U/18X 5-7 years: $25k/yr 8-12 years: $35k/yr

$100k/yr (tax free) with 1 year min signing time for maintenance officers, finance specialists and CE. $69k/yr for WSOs w/ 20 year minimum signing time taxed at 50%. For any 11-X AFSCs, no bonus because the retention is fixed.

C7 Grand Sport...best car we’ve owned and by far the most insane that I’ve been on the track with. It was hard to trust the car the first two laps but fook me it was eye-watering every lap after. Tried for the ZL1 1LE but the car seats wouldn’t fit. 😑

If you haven’t heard these LiveATC recordings before...they are usually truncated and the transcripts aren’t real time. Not saying that’s true of this one, but helps when trying to build the mental framework for timing and sequence of events.

Some people DGAF about 0-60 or 1/4 mile. A Tesla on anything other than the drag strip is boring. No rumble. No shifting. Nothing...it’s a really fast vibrator with tires. It doesn’t excel in the corners either. I would rather buy two C8’s than a single Tesla. One for the track and one as a DD. But thank God this is America and you can spend your money on whatever you want...even if it is the wrong way. 🍺

Anybody have recommendations on a tax pro they use consistently? Have been using the MilOneSource H&R Block service for quite a while but it seems more difficult every year to accurately file.

Ouch...what did I do to deserve that?

That doesn’t prevent iron from moving to a new location.

Of all of the T-1 bases, which will be last to divest the platform? I can guarantee it won’t be Vance.

Pensacola is a better bet. Will continue to be around as the Navigator Express.

https://www.moldex.com/product/sparkplugs/ Much better than the 3M yellow foamies. If shooting, double up with cheapy Peltors.

That could be fixed by dissolving the T-1 UPT IP manning and generating more MWS sim time. I honestly can't recall how much attention I've given to di1630s posts before, but I hope you are still serving and in a position to affect the current model. As alluded to earlier...too many get off my lawn types running around. Also good to see hindsight still writing 200 IQ responses to internet chat blabber.
