Ask those folks at Misawa who had their "SOS, Flt CC, skill, depth, breadth, strats, combat" done when they went to their board how that worked out for them.

No. The cop O-6 on the board has no idea why being an IP is a big deal.

I think more importantly than what the regs say is the fact that no one is going to remember what OND was 5-10 years from now so it's probably not a great thing to reference.

I'm sure it will just take the multi-billion dollar industry a couple of years to fully grasp and implement Butters' TUI masters thesis concepts.

IPR doesn't assign short tour credit. Take your travel vouchers to career management over at the MPF along with the highlighted short tour table and you'll be good to go.

I figure that there is some sort of stat out there like class A's per flying hour or something. To me, it feels like there have been more crashes than normal even though we're not flying as much. I don't know if that's true or if it just feels that way.

Has it been rough? Is the accident rate actually bad this year or is this just how it always has been? I echo the sentiment though; thank god he's all right.

And just think, soon those who take the bonus will be getting their Acp pay as well as their stop loss pay!

I tried looking earlier in this thread for the answer but couldn't find it. I apologize if this has already been answered. Can you start the AU OLMP on the leadership concentration, take the core courses, and then when you become a major select "switch" to the joint warfare concentration?

Like with everything else, the military cares more about appearances than results.

Also, why was I forced to sit Sof for predators in Iraq?

You really should go talk to someone about it (if you never want to fly an airplane again).

This is my favorite thread ever.

In the viper world, you're also ineligible for WIC, on a "fast track" to BMC, and were probably passed over for major on the last board. But yeah, you'll stay in the jet.

I honestly don't really know what the SECAF does. Is this bad? Does it matter?

Record a YouTube video of the ridiculously loud alarm.

Also, 97k a year for an FO is realistic once you're off probation. Check the pay on a 2nd year united FO flying a 747. United also has 399 retirements this year.

So to you, "more restrictive" is the same as "completely contrary"?

I agree, but, isn't that sort of insubordination? If Welsh is serious enough about this to change it on your PRF, shouldn't commanders fall in line?

Your oha will cover a brand new 4 bedroom apt with appliances.

Yeah, those in charge surely aren't so retarded that they would pass over 11Fs with clean records for major. Or RIF and then do a recall to active duty the same year.

2 rooms plus a small kitchen, not too old, central heating and cooling, right next to the O Club. Or you could live off base in a 2000 sq ft apartment.

So was continuation offered or no?

Smokin, No adverse actions that I know of. 2 of the guys were on their second look though from what I understand.

At Misawa, 6 of 10 F-16 pilots on the board were passed over. One stat that was interesting: 0 previous FAIPs were selected for promotion. Edit: added base.
