  1. Especially where we just read an AIB in which a dude morted and one of the contributing factors was a poorly flown ILS approach.
  2. I’m 90% certain Guardian is the latest PYB. How long until a full blown meltdown? Does he still drive his Eclipse? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  3. I think we’ve found Shazaam’s original account. Member since 2010 w/10 posts all on this thread. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  4. Actually it is a 6 hour class and 5 hours of it can be covered by CBT, sim time, or a combination. Source: I went to AIS once. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  5. Those are not valid reasons. They have to initiate proceedings to remove you from the list. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  6. You continue to meet the board until you are no longer allowed to stay in (24 years as a Maj). Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  7. You have a timeline to keep. They were supposed to give you the continuation paperwork when you got your 2nd non-select counseling MFR. If you don’t sign by (30 days I think) it is automatic non-continuation. I could be wrong I haven’t read that reg in a while. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  8. KC-10s are in need of night fighters all the time. I’ll see if our barrel can reach out to yours. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  9. Amen and amen. I’ve had the opportunity to be a DO in garrison and deployed. Day to day ops was do it smart and right. Every once in a while there was something that required pushing the envelope...but those days were the days to double-down on top cover to make sure the right people were on the missions and the risk was mitigated or accepted with full knowledge at the AC-level. CCs are supposed to manage careers and DOs are supposed to lead the mission and protect the people from themselves and the leadership above.
  10. The Epoch Times isn’t exactly a great news source... Edited to add: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/24/technology/epoch-times-influence-falun-gong.html
  11. Use Rule 7 not Rule 6. I’ve seen people get approved for ground school (ATP/CTP) and I’ve seen the same commander tell them “no” for the flight portion because it doesn’t help the AF. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  12. They designed it to fail...so it failed.
  13. It isn’t an ADSC, bro. You can leave any time after you complete other ADSCs or even transfer ADSCs. If you decline...ADSCs don’t matter you’re out 6 months after the board stuff IAW the AFI. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  14. That story sure seems legit... Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  15. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2020/10/26/qatar-australia-strip-searches/?outputType=amp Why the are these people our allies? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  16. Not necessarily, but you won’t be qualified for ejection seats which means you can’t fly the T-6...
  17. If you said “two airmen married to get out of the dorms” I would understand. But do people really think people get married purely for tax benefits? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  18. If you’re talking to the little tanker that’s probably the best answer you’ll get. We do random AR and non-standard formation all the time. “TANKR 11 request random AR along the route of flight FL220B240.” And ATC has always said “approved.”
  19. Grampa, they call it a Spank Bank these days!
  20. You’ll get back pay to when you should have pinned on IIRC. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  21. You don’t need an ALTRV in the US. It’s nice to coordinate with CARF but your tanker can just file and request random AR along the route of flight. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  22. Open source is great because we can read it all and modify it for our needs.
  23. Mudhen? Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
  24. Huggy, I believe the phrase you’re looking for is “instrument flying [in a fighter] is admin.”
