  1. Ah good. We have a young wingman who is going to go to the 18 AGRS at Eielson after only a year in Korea, so that makes sense. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums
  2. Latest from the CAF FB page says that the flight pay bump probably won't happen until October. They've been talking about this since February, but it's moving at the speed of government I guess.
  3. Don't assume I care what the difference is.
  4. It's gotten better ever since AETC put a loadmaster in each RSU and in every CT rear cockpit. T-6 checklist discipline is through the roof! Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network Forums
  5. Only if you are a giant pvssy. EDIT: I've been a BO member for 14 fvcking years and I can't say p*ssy? YGBSM. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums
  6. If you don't USE trim or you don't FIND trim, the end result is the same...heh.
  7. Jeebus Christ what a douchey post, hatedont. Seriously, are you trying to troll? While you clear your airmen off at 1630 so they can line up at the CDC and take their night classes, some 20 year old crew chief is on his 12th hour of work...for the 6th consecutive day...before he takes one day off and repeats that week again, and again, and again. That's why the MXG has a special word for the off-flightline folks. And yes, someone might actually die if your troops don't do their job on time. The 50 hour wingman next to me needs his time in the books to manage his weapon system and come home alive...not just in wartime, but every damn day. Time is a finite resource, and our pilots don't have time to do your job because you won't do it yourself. An hour wasted for TMO bullshit is an hour that LT might have needed in the sim/vault/jet/etc. FVCKUPS LIKE YOU DESCRIBE (AND CONDONE, YGBSM) ARE WHY WE ARE HEMMORHAGING COMBAT CAPABILITY.

  8. 20 bucks says lodging comes back with "then put them on your bed and YOU take the air mattress."
  9. Man - United's customer service really needs to settle down. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums
  10. I found out. I'm am in-res IDE grad, so not a big surprise. (That's not endorsement from me of the use of school in res as a discriminator...I'm just stating fact.) Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network Forums
  11. You guys forget that the overall goal of any Russian influence is just to cast doubt upon the validity of our democratic process. To them, ultimately it doesn't matter who won the election. They have ways to make both of our main candidates look bad. They also know that our political process is so polarized that the "losing" party will happily dance to the tune of electoral illegitimacy. As long as the US electoral process is damaged, Russia meets its goal. I don't know what's so hard to understand about this, but here we are bickering about foreign electoral influence like it's some sort of surprise. YGBSM.

  12. Are the statistics of the board publicly available now? Promotion rates for various categories should be pretty interesting...
  13. Do me a favor and PM me your name and USAF email address. I'll talk to some of my bros at the Viper RTU and make sure everyone gets the data we need to sort this out.
  14. I don't think it's a good discussion for anyone "in the know" to have on this board. The peanut gallery can speculate all they want, though.
  15. Gulf War I is a pretty good starting point.
  16. The military retention problem will end as soon as our entire defense establishment shows senior CGOs and junior FGOs that it cares about ONE THING ONLY: WINNING. I'm talking everything from MWS selection, development, fielding, and utilization. All the personnel woes. Training for combat in a way that matters, and recognizing those who do well. Executing our mission in ways which is meaningful, in conflicts chosen smartly / fought smartly / with an end state actually in mind (and attainable). MAKE US WIN AGAIN AND WE WILL WORK FOR FREE. I WANT TO PLAY FOR A WINNING TEAM, but more importantly, I WANT TO PLAY FOR A TEAM THAT CARES ABOUT WINNING. Seriously, it's that simple.
  17. The greatest movie of all time. Harrumph!
  18. Danny Noonin is right the fuck on and 100% right. I'll add this: Just by having the CAPABILITY to win away games, we secure peace and stability for the world. Make no mistake, the resurgence from Russia and China's near-annexation of the South China Sea aren't randomly occurring at the same time. Both of those nations know that our superiority margin is rapidly shrinking, and they're gaining confidence that they can hold their own on their own court. This means a more dangerous 21st Century. Peace dividend was a farce.
  19. Complete with a Mustache March pedostache mugshot. You can't make this shit up.
  20. Dude, don't look at an Eaglebro video and think it represents us. The number one reason I wanted more than 187 F-22s wasn't air superiority...it was to rid the world of Eagle gayness. In the end, the Axe hair gel lobby was too strong, and we only got 187 Raptors. Beltway politics.
  21. Anyone seen the UAV "1G Thang" video? It was two TAMIed Viper drivers who parodied Snoop's "G Thang" video and made fun of UAV life. It's gone from YouTube. Also, I heard those guys from "This is Why I'm Hot" got reprimanded because they showed AOR frequencies in the video. :facepalm:
  22. It jumped the shark before that. TC just can't fathom that he could ever be wrong about anything. Reading his diatribes was a peak into the mind of a very special kind of narcissist.
  23. Hmm...you say JQP only told one side of the story just to generate traffic? You say he doesn't care about the truth? . . . . SHOCKING.
