Deid runs for all my airlift friends! -
Ok, I'll ask the stupid question... If I understand correctly, the 750hr requirement for military starts after the regs change this summer. If I take the written 1 Aug, will I be grandfathered into the 1500hr requirement since I didn't do the newly required sim/ground school that was supposed to be done in order to take the written? BTW, thanks guys for all the good info.

After searching, couldn't find this answer... Is there anything that prohibits you from taking the ATP written prior to achieving 1500 hours? I'm going to be really close to 1500 by July, but I thought I'd check.

https://medium.com/war-is-boring/ff4662469f95 Ambiguous strategic effect? I'm going to go out on a limb and say the bombing of Honshu (Japan's main island) and the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki had a very large strategic effect...as in ending WWII. A short google search shows that this guy has written numerous papers about the Navy. (https://www.uky.edu/~rmfarl2/Farleycv.htm) Including "The Future of US Naval Power" (is that bias I smell?)

What a terrible week. Here's a toast...

It doesn't take as much as some may think to throw CG out of limits. The center of gravity on a herk has to be kept within a very small range (a couple feet) or it's out of CG. Can't imagine a couple 40K lbs vehicles moving to the back of the plane.

Tailwinds to you gentlemen... :beer: :beer:

If you're an ROTC guy (I assume you are), then you are SOL. The only thing that could possibly move up your EAD would be if you got orders to go to IFS earlier. In this budget environment, there is no reason for the AF to bring you on active duty right away so that you can sit at your UPT base for 6-12 months until your class starts.

Apparently the last mile was dedicated to the victims of Newtown (the families were in the grandstands) What a tragedy.

Thoughts and prayers to the family. What a tragedy.

This is great! I've known many airwomen who have suffered in silence for too long!

It's always pilot error...even for the UAV guys https://www.rgj.com/viewart/20130409/NEWS07/304090054/Air-Force-Series-errors-led-NV-drone-crash edit to add link
