I went to sos after my majors board. As long as you go before the earliest pin-on date, you're good.

You repeated one 1. Timing is everything 2. It's better to be lucky than good 3. There is no justice

Awesome, thanks. I'll be in touch one I'm a bit closer to build time

You missed the joke

My plan is to have a custom home designed and built. Most likely in the Dallas area. Any experience and advice you can offer would be huge. Not planning to start throwing money at it for about three years, but once I do, I want to do it right.

In this scenario, the fraternization, not the publicity of the video would be the punishable offense.

Perfectly.

Agreed. Maybe when the most common O-6 story about the good old days isn't about how SF used to let them drive drunk after a night at the O Club, they can start kicking people out for stupid judgement lapses.

"Raptor, may I touch you on the throttle?"

How much to purchase, if I may ask?

It just doesn't add up. We announce we are leaving Syria, which is exactly what Assad wants, so he gasses a bunch of women and kids in a town that was already surrounded?

They helped chew through the bulkheads. Both parties are broken. What they really want is power and status. That's why Democrats supported an obvious liar and apparent criminal who would keep the status quo over Bernie, and why Republicans would squander away the best legislative opportunity imaginable because of some worthless drama. Remember, these are the people who molest kids, cheat on their wives, don't pay taxes, use campaign funds for bribing pregnant mistresses (while the wife dies of cancer), solicit gay sex in airports while fighting gay marriage, expose classified material to avoid FOIA, use inside knowledge of future legislation to game the stock market, sext 15 year olds AFTER getting caught, lie about terrorist attacks, secretly support racist spiritual leaders, use methamphetamines, interns then cast them aside, think islands could tip over, need I go on? Trump is in NO WAY worse than these people, both sides. The only difference is the way he talks/tweets. And the most amazing part is that it was "dumb America" that recognized it, while the smarter, successful people (like say, military officers) somehow convinced themselves he was an anomalous threat. If you think Trump is bad, great. He is. But if you think he's somehow worse than the alternatives, you're ignoring some pretty egregious evidence.

He does, which is ridiculous since he's seen the process corrupted first-hand at the lowest levels.

Agreed. But the facts in the article are not in dispute. There FBI recommended one of their own gets fired, Sessions agreed, and obviously so did the president.

The FBI https://www.nationalreview.com/2018/03/andrew-mccabe-firing-recommended-fbi-deputy-director/

That was all fine and dandy until Strzok and Page were outed (by a leak, no less) as trying to arrange a secret meeting with a FISA judge, and the FBI felt it was appropriate to hide this fact from Congress through redaction. Oh, and another professional, Andy McCabe, did such a good job that even the FBI felt he should be fired and lose his pension. And Comey, that paragon of blind justice, looks worse by the day with his scheming and leaking and inconsistency. They're making it pretty damn hard to trust the "professional career lawmen."

Yes. This is one of the many, many reasons you never talk to the police if they have questions for you.

Let's not forget that the pilot crisis (according to the AF) started when fighter guys started quitting after being away from home at rates barely approaching what MAF guys were at a decade ago. And many of them are quitting during the most trigger happy period in the last 15 years. To go to the airlines. If a patriotic group of guys and gals are looking to go be FAIPs or regular UPT IPs to strengthen airline resumes, that's a critique on our foreign policy and military leadership, not on their devotion to service.

I did both. I got far more airmanship from being a FAIP.

Probably because people were doing full hook turns by staring at their heading bug

I think it's actually good. Movements die when they transition into the absurd.

Should we have air shows?

Don't be. The numbers are certainly worse. For AD mobility they are showing a surplus. Sure didn't look like a surplus on the tanker side of things... But when you can change the denominator without any real justification, 100% is easy to achieve. Sometime between 06 and 07 being able to separate, stop loss will hit.

How do you know?

Which has zero bearing on what I said
