The Next President is...
For those who say the President has no say in the price of gas/fossil fuels. Thanks Biden. “Minimum lease bonds will soar to $150,000 under the new rules from $10,000 -- a level unchanged since 1960. Royalty rates will rise to 16.67% from 12.5%, and the minimum amount companies can bid at oil and gas auctions will increase to $10 an acre from $2. The rental rate for a 10-year lease will double to $3 an acre for the first two years, eventually rising to $15 per acre in the final years. The fees can be adjusted for inflation after 10 years.” https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/us-finalizes-higher-fees-for-oil-and-gas-companies-on-federal-lands/ar-BB1lwNYC

I didn’t make Major rank what next
My bet is that if he is passed over again, he will be offered continuation as a pilot, which means no separation pay.

World War III Updates
We might as well finally make severe cuts to our military if half the country isn’t going to be ok with civilians dying in the next conflict.

Today in hypocrisy...
But that’s not what you said—you said you can only think of one competent person in Trump’s administration. So why argue with your opinion if it’s clear we disagree on political matters and your philosophy?

Wait, are you suggesting that your opinion of whether or not someone is competent outweighs someone else’s opinion that differs than yours?

If you have been selected to be a UPT IP for your next assignment, then yes, you will still go to PIT. As for your recommendations: 1) Do your best in your current assignment and at PIT 2) Talk to your current commander about his/her opinions regarding the board results—be honest (but professional) with your thoughts and feelings on the matter, and ask for advice. 3) I wouldn’t be surprised if you get picked up above the zone, depending on your record (assuming you don’t have a UIF). So do your best when you get to your UPT base, make your desires known to your next commander. 4) If you get picked up above the zone, continue as you would have, if you get passed over again, decline continuation if you want to get out (I recommend having a solid plan first), or accept continuation and see what life brings you. The last few years I’ve seen guys get picked up for the next rank after being passed over multiple times…so you never know. Either way, try to stay positive, seek out some good mentors, work hard, and good things will still happen to you. Good luck!

It’s literally under a thread called “Today in hypocrisy…”, not “How to fly an ILS in the T-6.” The thread is fine as it is.

States should most definitely have the option of seceding if they want…if not, there’s not much of a “union”, is there?

Gun Talk
Dude, I literally just came on here to post this lol.

Belly flopped T-6
The best posts are where they talk about how officers don’t get disciplined for DUIs, etc, especially compared to the enlisted. And then of course they also talk about how much more work the enlisted do and how they’re so much smarter than the officers.

The Next President is...
I didn’t say anything about Biden. Just that Trump knows that only women have pussies whereas it seems everybody on the left says that men with dicks can be women. So if it’s between Biden and Trump, I’ll vote for the one that understands basic anatomy. That all being said, RFK Jr does make some interesting and compelling points on some issues.

At least he knows only women have pussies…those on the left don’t seem to believe so.

Finally done in Afghanistan?
But the administration says it’s all Trump’s fault.

It’s all about luck and timing. The only time AFPC isn’t BSing you is when their lips aren’t moving.

Changing/Switching airframes
You can always call (if they’ll answer the phone) or email your assignments officer…however, depending on your rank and community, they may only want to talk to your CC as they want to make sure the CC is aware/concurs with your desires. Not sure what you fly now, but go be a UPT IP—it will make you a much better pilot. It can also (maybe) help open up other doors after that assignment. Good luck!

Will your core functional release you to a mechanical crossflow? If not, then it’s most likely not going to happen. Have you been a UPT IP?
