Sounds like Felix's jump (Red Bull Stratos) is back on with a jump window opening up in July. Pretty amazing stuff. https://www.redbullstratos.com/

Apparently FoxNews has a 4th grader doing their animation...check out the video at the link below. https://www.foxnews.com/world/2012/01/25/sources-us-raid-frees-american-and-dane-held-hostage-in-somalia/?test=latestnews

right thread this time.... I am sure those of you "in the know" have better knowledge...but the Air Force fish wrap has an article out... https://www.airforcet...report-011112w/ Thoughts A-10 dudes?

Cake eater... I have too, and it

That parody is awesome

Agreed. Don't go to an apartment complex to sell a goldchain to someone from Craigslist.

I don't think there is a thread like this...I searched but to no avail. I thought it would be cool to post good flying stories we come across here (or post your own). Anyway here is one from AF Times https://www.airforcet...vietnam-122611/ Best line ever: “We took off in jeans and cowboy boots without much else on us,” he said.

Ha! This happened just up the road from me. It got just a little blown out of proportion here with the local media.

The Palace is a fine establishment. I lived in the dorms back then and spent most of my time in a stupor from school and or booze. I recall a few married guys living in Schertz and they seemed to like it. I am sure there are more guys on here with better knowledge, I just wanted to be a smartass.

Forgot about the Fed side. My wife (former military) works for DHS and I know a good handful of guys who are getting picked up by the FBI without any real law enforcement background. If you're willing to go anywhere for a job, that might be worth looking into.

They're f-ing stupid...plain and simple. Never, ever photograph or video anything...ever.

I was a 12B and unfortunately, there are not a lot of jobs that call for putting bombs on target. But, having military experience pays off huge dividens. What is it you're looking to do? Lucas Group and Orion International are very good companies for helping you find a job. They specialize in working with people getting out of the military. I went with Orion and got 3 job offers from Fortune 500 companies through them...I didn't take the jobs but it was nice to know that with my background (no business education at all) I still had options in good companies. The salary they offered were comparable with what I was making when I was still "in". All depends what you are looking for. Baby boomers are retiring all over, public safety (chicks dig firefighters), railroads, and air traffic control are all going to be hiring a lot over the next few years. Good jobs with good pensions (for now) if you're willing to take a pay cut. Also, you get Vets points and that is huge, especially if you get a disability rating (30% gets you an additional 5 pts). i went from #7 on a list up to #1 and a job offer thanks to the Vets points. Speaking of disability rating ...talk with the flight doc now about EVERY ailment you have or have had while in the AF. Don't scam the system, but take advantage. At the very least you could probably get hearing loss and tenitis without the VA putting up too much of a fight. Numbness and tingling in your extremities is hard to prove...or so I have heard.

and yet they are paying $7.4B to upgrade the F-22. Brilliant! https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/2011/11/ap-lockheed-gets-af-deal-to-upgrade-f22-111911w/

Saint Paul

Wait a minute...Bin Laden is dead?

Weapons School?

I am in

Thought you chaps would like this day brightener....looks like our old pal is running for Congress! https://www.scottogrady.com/

Money involved? I would suggest using League Safe.

I think the dude with the long hair in that video was in the first Die Hard movie.

Zombie Gunship. You get to fly around in an AC130 shooting zombies. Nuff said.

Damn...

I am in...lets do an auction draft.

This looks promising...although I hope it isn't a re-hash of the 90's HBO movie.
