  1. Just got this error when I tried to access the forum about 10 min ago: And this one not long after:
  2. Another reminder that this is a serious business. I hope for the best for the crew, and my heart goes out to their families and friends.
  3. Holy shit! I may think twice next time I want to play Call of Duty......nahhhh.
  4. As good as that CBT is, I think I was more entertained by the "incompitance." Now that's fucking ironic.
  5. Flight pay is INCENTIVE pay...to keep you in the cockpit (or in this case, the shipping container). It has nothing to do with how dangerous your job is. The title is your clue: Aviation Career Incentive Pay. Not "Oh My God I Just Shit My Drawers Because I Thought I Saw A SAM" pay.
  6. Since we're going back in time...can anyone give me some advice on how to get through pilot training?

  8. Those pretentious "genius" f*cks at the Apple store have made me seriously consider murder on more than one occasion, but that iPhone is one helluva great phone. So, despite my deep seeded hatred of Apple, I am considering a switch to the Holy iPhone. For you current iPhone owners who switched from a Blackberry, is there anything you miss about the BB, anything it did better, etc. and if so how much do you really miss it?
  9. Alpine Meadows and Homewood are also free for Military. Get your ticket at the "Special Tickets" window (I think that's what it's called) inside the lodge. Sundays are free for mil at Northstar and Sierra-at-Tahoe. Mt. Rose has discounted tickets, but you have to get the vouchers from MWR/ITT on base before you go. I hear Heavenly has discounts for mil, but I think you have to contact the ticket office beforehand. Also, check this out if you need a place to stay on the North Shore: http://uscglaketahoeaframes.com/ I haven't used them myself, but they look like they're worth checking into.
  10. Unless you provide a picture of the photocopy, this doesn't count.
  11. I've been at BAF for a month now and I have yet to wear my reflective belt. Neither has anyone else in my squadron for that matter. In fact, I don't even know where mine is right now. Maybe it's the calm before the storm, but it doesn't seem to be an issue here at the moment.
  12. 8000+ members and growing! Leadership has taken note, although I fear they may completely misunderstand the underlying reasons people have joined the group. Keep up the fight, folks. Take the time to post comments on blogs and/or send e-mails to journalists who miss the point!
  13. I was going to make a joke about a "Grand Slam," but I'll let it slide...oops, my bad. I just can't help myself!
  14. Just trying to help contraildash with some rocket surgery. Him: You, a few posts earlier: and... It just sounded like he needed a hand putting 2+2 together.
  15. Not to derail the lively reflective belt discussion, but.... ON WHAT F*CKING PLANET IS IT ACCEPTABLE TO REQUIRE A TRANSIENT AIRCREW TO SPEND 45-60 MINUTES PROCESSING THOUGH CUSTOMS JUST TO WE CAN WALK OVER TO BASE OPS TO FILE A GODDAMN FLIGHT PLAN!?!?!?! Fortunately TA was very helpful and kept us from having to endure the pain. Still, at some point someone needs to tell the Qataris to f*ck off.
  16. Re-read through this thread one more time and let us know what you find.
