The f-16 was supposed to be a day only VFR interceptor. It's good if we build our aircraft to be flexible enough for unforseen circumstances. Also, there aren't going to be any legacy aircraft left - that's the whole point of the f-35, right?

Wasn't there a C-17 pilot reprimanded for SIB results as well?

Good tax preparation in Colorado Springs?

I used the Watson CPA group. Had a good experience. -
Should we consider talking with someone from another AFSC "PME"? I don't discount the value in those interactions, but doesn't that speak to ACSC's lack of effectiveness from an academic point of view if that's the best thing you get out of the course?
-
Do people actually learn stuff at PME like ACSC or AWC? SOS was an 8 week vacation from the CAF - I expected ACSC to just be a 12 month vacation with nebulous benefits.
-
What.

Any progress in letting pilots operate more than one Drone simultaneously? My understanding is that the software basically already exists, but that there is some institutional resistance to the idea.
-
The IG? Is that the office that helps legitimized illegal commander actions?
-
Wow, I knew it was bad, but didn't think it was that bad. I cannot imagine what it would feel like to be stop lossed in a job you hate.
-
2 percent is hyperbole, correct?
-
I always found that argument insulting and condescending. I've heard it enough that it's clear that it's taught at some version of O-5 charm school.
-
What is "I quit" whining?
-
Remember too that these hypothetical 15 year adsc guys would also only be eligible for the new reduced benefit pension. I can only imagine the shit that AFPC would pull if it knew it had you for 5 more assignments.
-
What are you flying and where are you stationed, if you don't mind me asking?
-
From what I've heard, a longer UPT ADSC is the only serious option being considered by HAF to "fix" the pilot retention problem. For the cadets reading this, don't sign a 13 year contract or a 15 year contract. According to this year's retention statistics, > 50% of you will regret it.

Any fighter guys recently try to palace Chase? 6 Months early still getting approved or are people getting out earlier than that?
-
Had a buddy who went through at Oakland. Overall positive experience. Sounds tailored to the military aviator.
-
Anybody know if the reg that governs the 1288 application? My gaining unit is wondering if my position number has to be a vacant position or if they can use an overage.
-
If you PM me I can give you the contact info for a guy that just did it. He was HUGE into fitness and still said that the physical tryout portion was pretty intense. I seem to remember him saying that some of the guys that tried out with him didn't make the cut for that reason alone.
-
When they give you the "opportunity" to reclass AFSCs, do not fall for it. The few guys released back to manned aircraft all had maintained their 11 prefix. This is secondhand, so please correct me if my info is out of date.

I'd take an iPad mini with an ADS-B puck with me in the viper. More use to me than the HSD going to and from the airspace.
-
How many months off did you get? AFSC?
-
What.
-
You are worried about "punk college kids looking for action"? Your best investment might be buying some time with a psychologist.
-
Duck, how many months are you trying to shave off?
