Refueling goes bad.
Can anyone tell what type of jet this is?

Wow man. A rediculously long description of the AMX was written on the same damn page.

UND doesn't have the rich snobby kids here... plus the cold makes you tougher! Not many people can say they've flown in -30 degrees weather in the winter and 100 degrees in the summer... and have 4-5 blizzards a year... at least. You also have a chance to go a "normal" college and all that accompanies it... unlike ERAU. Oh, and we have the best college hockey team in the nation. Obviously UND is the better choice. :)
Daytona Beach, North Pole, Daytona Beach, North Pole.....right.

Sounds like there were unconscious. All bets off when unpressurized above the Armstrong line.

Ditto. Lots of great reasons to come here, some not so great reasons (price being #1). I went to fly, and I'd argue the Aeronautical Science program can't be beat. The professors are outstanding, and their emphasis on safe flight operations and crew resource management were excellent.
However, would I still be flying in the Air Force if I had gone somewhere cheaper and majored in poli sci, without $80,000 in debt? Probably.
So its your call.

Now the real question: when is someone going to man up and do a repeat of the Phantom pic!
You're assuming it doesn't happen very often. Not everyone wants to get caught doing it...

I wore BDU's in the field, because I went in November and the temps were something like 14 at night. I'd recommend it.
"2" on the headlamp. Get something powerful, it will be a big help.

Volunteer to go to Iraq lazy arses! What an asshole...
You're kidding, right?

Because clearly, getting rid of parachutes take priority over getting rid of Smart boards and plasma screens.

let it be known too that those herk nav's were still on the "cry me a river I didnt get a pilot slot" So its no wonder they trash talked their own airframe. It was quite a sobering experience that has scared me a bit from the NAV side of the house. When I get to randolph, it makes me already want to consider EWO without knowing jack about them.
That's not a well-informed decision either. A C-130 nav who hates his job has personal issues he/she needs to get over. I'm a C-130 nav, and I absolutely love what I'm doing. Yes, I put in for a pilot slot in ROTC, but didn't get one. Yes, I tried to go special ops from Randolph, but didn't get it. Oh well...this job kicks ass, the crews are great, the locations "can" be great too, and people who say otherwise are just bitter at life.
And you're a cadet still, so I would highly recommend keeping your pie hole shut about real world things you know absolutely dick about.

One word is all you need to know for a good workout if you're short on time: CrossFit. This program is pure gold here at UPT.
One more vote for Crossfit. I just started doing it not too long ago, looks like a great program.

I'm glad this thread keeps popping up from time to time. Makes ripping on BC pretty easy.

Give me a f'ing break. Way to go, AFA.
The more I learn about the academy, the more of a joke I think it is.

I'm a fan of our heritage patch.

You faggots watch Americal Idol.
:beer: -
I was in the DFW USO this morning...my second time stopping by, always great! They've always got a movie going with comfortable chairs, sleeping area, lots of computers and wireless, a guitar you can play, tons of free food/drinks, and grade A service.

I don't think there's any way that the second half of the SERE acronym can possibly be taught effectively (or securely!) through a damned CBT.
If you want to call it survival and evasion training, sure call it that, but don't do mis-justice to the SERE career fields and everyone of us that went through the real deal.

I'll be back at Randolph in a couple weeks with my bike, I'll definitely be looking for a breakfast run!

I searched and this was the thred with the most posts...
I need to get dog tags to go on a Army Helo ride (ROTC) in a few weeks and I just wanted to make sure I get all of the lines correct. If I'm not mistaken the lines are:
Last Name
First Name, Middle Name
SSN
Blood Type
Religion
Let me know if I am missing anything...
Thanks
First off, its queer that they're making you have them for an orientation ride.
But, it actually goes:
Last name
First name, middle initial
SSN and service
Blood type
Religion
I'm a fresh Herk nav- they harp on the dog tags thing at Randolph and not quite as much at the Rock.

Sweet, it'd be a cool tool to have around the house. Not sure if I'd want the 8gig of memory space needed for all the satellite imagery though.

One car doesn't even stop...what an asshole.

I don't think any story has topped Rainman's post in this thread
(Put a direct link in for ya! Cheers! M2)

What are you guys talking about? You should be cheering him on! He's trying to make the point hit home that way too many of us are flying airframes from the pre-Vietnam era. Its unfortunate that flyers will have to start dying to get any real attention paid to this issue.

Looks like a great program. We won't be able to get eye-witness accounts for much longer.

An all time low has been reached my friends......
My sock ends a full 4 inches below the top of the boot, how the f*** do you check something like that? "Sir, please remove your boots. I have to check the color of your socks before you can eat a meal." Jesus Christ...I REALLY don't see why the answer can't be a simple "No, Sergeant," end of story.
WTF is next? Mandating a type of underwear? And why doesn't the senior leadership have the brass to stop the nonsense?

...and "AMX" is still shown twice without the box down.
Just sayin'. Little thing looks fun to fly though.
