  1. It is released. People at my base are signing as of 6 June. Go beat up metaphorically on your FSS for answers. They let our guys backdate to 6 June.

    Without knowing your airline, it is tough to say especially since many had special deals during COVID. JetBlue allows service beyond five years and simply requires you to present orders and then they stop paying your 401k matching and profit sharing, if any.
  3. I’m on orders and have just started getting random LESs for $80 or $160, all of which goes to taxes for some reason, starting in mid-November. Haven’t heard of any DSGs getting the fix yet.
  4. Our finance office said the raise was only for UAV pilots and ignored further requests to fix the issue. Good thing it’s out of their hands to solve it.
  5. University of New Hampshire is pretty good for a fully online mba. If you live in the area, you can switch between in class and online seemlessly. I actually got one after getting my Air Force bs square filled degree.
  6. When I separated, my unit had a 30 day wait policy for Mpa orders so that "the system" could catch up. I got lucky and we ran out of people to fill our alert so started orders on my first day. It took four months to get paid, though it was my biggest paycheck I'll probably ever see when I got it.
  7. Best promotion I ever received.
  8. My OPR actually did stick with original dates from active duty. It didn't make sense to me, but my unit did it that way too. In the end I had almost all bullets from what I had done on active duty (chief of Stan/eval) but a duty title that said pilot.
  9. You can get disability while in the guard. You just have to pay it back when you're on orders, be it for a month or for a tdy. I'm not sure about drill status. You can be a technician and receive disability. This should be covered in your TAP class if the instructors aren't worthless. I'm assuming yours were. I didn't ask about medical coverage. And no. I don't claim disability.
  10. I had similar problems with my squadron commander not signing it while I was deployed. I just called and emailed him daily for a month until he did. My separation date stayed the same but was a bit of a time crunch. A friend has almost identical dates to you, and he is still hoping for a November separation date.
  11. My wife and I did a pub crawl that starts by the university of London kinda south of it a bit. I can't recall the exact place, but from yahoo it's the first website under London pub crawl and advertised on most of the tourist maps they give away in hotels. It's still my wife's favorite vacation things we've done. For more wholesome adventures try Tower of London (only for history nerds... Wife wanted to gouge her eyes out) or the huge food market (on Saturdays) just south of there, across the bridge. It's pretty famous. Unlike Rome and many other European cities, I felt London closed early. Good luck getting into museums after 5 or dinner after 10.
  12. Good and bad news. Thanks for the current info guys.
  13. Does anybody have some recent data on approval of palace chase, or realistically a lack thereof? A friend of mine is a Captain passed over for major interviewing at our unit this week. He's an 11M in the 135. Does being once passed over have any bearing recently? I'd say he has the standard once passed over commitment left... Like 2.5 years or so.
  14. I bought a case of this in Germany recently and most definitely second this as one of the best beers around. I felt stupid buying something in Europe they sell here, but at 4.50 Euros for two I couldn't pass it up.

    Damn it. One of my best friends is there now. ######
