Tough situation dude, sorry bout my post as well, should have said cant look it up. Well.......if you get passed over again, they probably are going to let you go anyway, saw that about 2 years ago, just don't take the continuance. When I was getting out there were a few captains in the out briefings and being the idiot I am I asked them how they did it, passed over, and they still had pilot commitment left (probably less then a third though). Make sure the unit you got hired with is OK with a twice passed over dude (some are/some aren't), and the problem might just work itself out!

Good for them, prayers to everyone. Should they rebuild only to get hit again next year or more?

Can somebody dumb this down for a non airline but possibly airline dude in the future? (I don't understand the dragging feet during negotiations, it sounds like bad practice).

Radio etiquette
Ouch motherfuckers. Never had a problem UHF vs VHF, I just like it a bit quieter on the radio, isn't that what you guys were saying? On top of that we (and most towers/ATC) have UHF, why not just it as primary? It could just be a single seat thing, cuts down on chatter.

Good to hear there are heavy dudes that are annoyed by lengthy and ridiculous radio transmissions. Reading War and Peace on the radio is so f'ing terrible. I once flew with a T-1 crew out of Ft Worth Alliance that departed and flew on VHF (they were UHF equipped), when I asked them why, they told me they didn't want to step on airline traffic. F'ing unbelievable.

It does make sense, I am at one. I think the AD keeps a large pool of warfighters current at the RTUs though.

I went through the 560th over 6 years ago, they were some good eggs there, but then there are the ones hindsights talking about. Career white jet, little to no operational experience, looks at the picture through a swizzle stick, no credibility. How those dudes stay at RND for over 10 years on AD is beyond me. I could continue.... Hey, did you hear the one about General Rand taking over AETC as the 4 star and putting the fighter RTUs back under ACC? My bonus source was a bust, but this one might hold water.

This statement has only been valid for about 2-3 years, prior to that leaving was a 1 way door, and the 11F community was filling up the UAS. The pendulum will swing, it always does.
