Clarification for Bashi: A lot of the 560th is populated with IPs who never taught T-38s in UPT. They were T-6 UPT/UCT IPs and then went to be a T-38 PIT IP later.

T-38 students that drop heavies do just fine in FTUs without ever having learned “how to fly as a crew.” Heavy FTUs have less time in the jet now because sims can accurately replicate flight.

Those were given away to other USG agencies from what I saw

More spam! buy some 737 Maxes and name them the T-43B

It’s one of the justifications being used to not replace it now. I don’t see the USAF with the appetite for a T-Z trainer. especially, when ACC is trying to lease T-50s through Hillwood for their ReForge experiment. And Hillwood/Alliance wants UPT at AFW.

Funnily enough, AMF (Air Mobility Fundamentals) tracked studs for UPT 2.5 ( as of the latest draft) get more sorties after track focused on Crew Coord, mobility stuff. They also may never fly a T-1 but that’s another fight.

The T-1 only was brought online to extend the life of the T-38. It had nothing to do with making a better MAF product

You think it will be 737 sims? Hah, I think the AMP’d T-1 sim COA is more likely. And to the person that said IFF should go away, it is. What remains to be seen is what the new APT fighter track construct is.

Good thing there are redundant INSes

The T-6 UPT 2.5 syllabus doesn’t erode seat time. The T-38 and T-1 syllabi don’t exist yet.

If anything, it would probably be more useful track B-52 bound students earlier then send them just to a bunch of T-1 sims. I’ve heard the B-52 flies like the T-1

In current UPT: Sim Check, Trans Check, Nav Check T-38 tracked studs do a form check T-38s: Trans, Nav, Form No idea for Toners Legacy syllabus had a: Mid-Phase, Final Contact, Inst, Form. So only T-1 studs get less T-6 checkrides

Do a PALACE Acquire program.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/coronavirus-wuhan-lab-china-compete-us-sources Cliffs: China was experimenting on SARS-CoV-2 for research not as a bioweapon. It escaped containment at the Wuhan Lab. The Chinese went full Chinese and lied and covered it up so it spread.

So what is the desired outcome now that we’ve ramped medical supply production and flattened the curve? We don’t have a vaccine. That means at least 80%* of the population needs to become infected to develop her immunity. Places that don’t have subways or huge events like Mardi Gras are less likely to spread. *Unsure if 80% is the precise number.

You’re both talking about the same area.

Name that commander.

On another note, I want to get into GA this year. I’m eagerly watching the market this fall especially if MOSAIC is put into rules.

Thought of building a Sling TSi?

And just a reminder you are just an expendable number.

Good luck to all. It seems like only yesterday you were debriefing me on TP stalls and poor tac turns.

And? As long as there aren’t training camps

Det 24 is at Randolph. No idea who owns the billets for PTN, whether AFPC/White jets or AETC/Illuminati.

This is based off everything I’ve read; but, a mistake isn’t an intentional deviation. And yes, that is worthy of firing a commander, because if it’s kosher to lie to your boss’s boss about your intentions then you have a problem. The big gotcha here is the alleged briefing. If it was “just do a flyby” there would be shades od gray. This wasnt.

If the 350 kt and 600’ briefing is true, I can completely understand the firing. A 150kt and 400’ delta is a big ass intentional deviation. The former CO also didn’t do himself any favors with this comment. Now I’ve never done a Marine flyover but Id imagine tower/rapcon deconflicts traffic. Not to mention when I have a traffic conflict my first thought is, yea I’ll speed up a 100+ kts and drop to the deck. “ “We had landing traffic,” Featherstone said. “We had to de-conflict from that and felt sandwiched in a little bit.” According to Featherstone, who was in the rear seat and not flying the aircraft, his attention was on the aircraft that was landing and not on where his pilot was flying. “I can’t tell you why the pilot descended.” he said. “Obviously I’m unhappy with the way this turned out, but, as commander I’m ultimately responsible. If deemed outside the box, I’m responsible.” https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/news/military/story/2020-01-31/video-this-f-a-18-flyover-cost-a-miramar-squadron-commander-his-job-and-likely-his-career
