They screwed the numbers to make it look good, when we know it isn't.

Information on PIT (Pilot Instructor Training)
Weirder is he went to Randolph and stayed at a crash pad but asked about where to live at Sheppard. Not adding up.

Private companies should be able to do what they want, I don't harbor ill will towards them. That doesn't mean I will shop there. Still better than Hillary.

T-6s Grounded; More OBOGS Issues
Ahhh, AETC cross countries. When I was a FLT/CC we were forced to go each class for a weekend, don't know if they still do it. Even the best students fell apart flying around Dallas or Los Angeles airspace, shoot I've seen instructors melt in Los Angles. There were a few classes I pushed pretty hard before cross country on purpose, it only left us 4 sorties for the cross country, so of course I'd double turn to Vegas on Friday then double turn home on Sunday, put a little vacation in the middle of UPT. This could be a thread all its own.

NCAA Men's BBall (WTF?)
Yup, the UofA is getting f’d Right now, possibly their own doing but whatever dynasty the program has may be going to way of Penn State. It’s too bad to see as a local, but this isn’t a one off. I have a few friends who know inside these programs and tell me they all do it, UofA just got caught.

T-6s Grounded; More OBOGS Issues
Not if you all start ground aborting, the Navy did this and a few F-22 guys back in the day, just don't go on 60 Minutes.

ARC seasoning day orders drastically cut?
I'd go and worry about it later, the ART program sucks donkey balls plus you can't do mil leave as an ART, only an AGR. Excel in UPT, and toward the middle//end, start beating the war drums that you can't accept an ART position due to being an airline guy, they'll get it if they don't already. The airline job you have already might be your saving grace.

Flying Videos Thread Part 2?
Can't let that cat outta the bag I think Freq and Maestro are still in. I think I have it somewhere. Apparently there is a Part II at the 16 WPS but its in the vault, which means it cannot ever come out.
