How insane we talkin here? I’m about to be in the same boat with the new Hummer EV.

I've been considering switching all banking over to Navy Fed to get a little interest in the cash i have in my checking and savings accounts. This is probably going to make me transfer everything and just use USAA for vehicle/personal property insurance.

USAA took another step backward today as they are eliminating the Limitless 2.5% cash back credit card. Replacing it will be a Preferred Cash Rewards Visa paying 1.5% cash back. USAA is slowly turning into any run of the mill bank.

Planning on moving my banking over to Navy Federal. Much better rates and physical locations in my area. Need to find good rates for insurance, both vehicle and personal property.

Just pathetic. What a kick to the junk.

Ended up going on the deployment. Got back and min ran anything office related. Flew as much as I could to make up the hours I missed out on and now I am retired. Missing out on 6 months of IP time certainly has hurt my chances at flying for a major however I have a pretty good job lined up. Check of the month club is a good thing!

Question for the peanut gallery. Does any type of NVG time allot you any type of disability? Rumor mill back in the day alluded to getting something if you accrued over X amt hours on NOGs.

You know the contract lengths they went for this time?

Yet however the FY19 AvB is still MIA. You'd think if they were hurting for people that would be priority #1 to retain some pilots at this point.

Any chance the 1 year option will come back for FY19? When will the FY19 AvB come out anyways? Would love to milk some more money out of the AF before I retire.

Sad that Tyndall took the full hit of the hurricane. Wonder if it's going to be like Homestead AFB when Andrew hit and they ultimately shut down the active duty base.

This retention train is accelerating even faster toward stop-loss.

Agreed. I don't want to look like every other joe schmoe in the AOR. I'll keep rocking the tans until I retire, before the mandatory wear date. em.

Easy. They thought we wouldn't notice, at least not this quickly.

Even worse a short notice 179 where the pilot can’t get fully current before leaving, like AR currency in the jet. Come back unqual and have to sign a 3year commitment to get flying again
