  1. I guess the JOG is a bit small of a scale for some of you flying "low level?" I don't really see much of a difference between a TPC and a sectional, if your brain is used to reading 1:500, whether you're using a TPC or a Sectional shouldn't really matter. To delve into that what I would do if I ruled the world area, why not produce sectionals for our overseas areas, with modern technology, it wouldn't be hard to keep them updated.
  2. who the hell actually uses TPC's? We should just dump the damn things and use sectionals.
  3. CRO go through the same school house that PJs do, training beyond that is unit specific. And in my experience, you're wrong in that CROs do everything PJs do. They do end up being the guy in charge on the ground vs. actually sticking people, but they're just as qualified as the PJs. my order would be CRO CCT/STO COMBAT WX/COMBAT COMM (tied) MX whatever my first choices are all tip of the spear types, then you get into MX, which is probably the most leadership intensive careerfield out there.

  11. Question about the reduced amount of AFSOC drops directly out of UPT. Any hint that this is going to include helos as well? They planning on going back to the go to Hueys first to get "seasoned?"

  15. Line pilot in the 60s: 1700 rollcall (mass brief) how much before this you show is your call 1800 crew brief 1900 go grab a bite to eat 1930-1945 suit up 2000 In seats at the aircraft 2100 take off 0200 land mx debrief immediately (ac only) 0245 debrief (time for this depends on mission complexity, average about an hout) so 0345, out the door so call it a 11-12 hour day on average if you're flying.
