It’s not that they are too stupid, they assume we are too stupid to know any difference. They only look down on us. It’s the elitist attitude. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Does flying start feeling like a job after a while?
We had a Dr in my ANG unit that was a pilot. She never had a problem being proficient at both. It’s very doable if you want it. A few years after retirement from the ANG, she obviously remained a Dr, but she missed flying. So she now flys for AA, and does her Dr thing on off days.

Social Unrest
That bio is a word salad of bullshit. When I read this kind of crap, I always picture that bar scene in Good Will Hunting where he’s mocking the Harvard idiots. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

CCW Choice
I have a VNSH. It’s ok but feels like overkill sometimes. It does give you options on location of carry. But it’s what I imagine wearing Spanx would feel like. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

CCW Choice
Back from the gun shop. Went with the P365X. Night sights, thumb safety, 12+1. Fits hand perfectly. Think I’m going to like it. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

CCW Choice
I’m an Sig guy for sure, they just seem to fit my hand better than most. Love my P250 and P226. Heading to the gun store today to fit test a few. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

CCW Choice
The Gun Talk thread is up over 300 pages and I’m a lazy retiree now. What’s everyone carrying for CCW? I have an Sig P250 in my truck and a G42. I’m giving the G42 to the wife and thinking about going with the P365. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Today in hypocrisy...
I’m going to caveat this by saying that I am retired and can’t speak to the current internal climate of nsplayer’s wing. But I will say that I have known the WG/CC and Command Chief for a long time and consider them very close friends. They are 2 of the most fair individuals I have ever served with. When the WG/CC was a SQ/CC, I was his DO. One of the best commanders I ever worked for. He always asked my opinion or for my advice. He was well informed and a great aviator, but more so , he was a great person. I am sure he addresses the social issues but I would be very surprised if they drive his decisions. I would say the very same thing about the Command Chief. That wing is in great hands. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Yep, this is how we do it as well. Very rarely does the CA stress or verify that the senior FO signs the paper. Usually a good sign of the toolbag FO, is the one who is stressing they are senior and insist of left seat/bunk. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

You are correct, the WiFi on these planes is the worst in the fleet. But the flight is only 35 mins, so I can live with it. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
