Professional Development Training (PDT) info
So is there a cadre member that tails along on these, or is it more of a local tour guide? I'm assuming theres no uniform wear or anything, its more of a paid vacation than anything?

Thoughts on Embry Riddle (ERAU)
Just because you go here doesnt mean you have to fly. I did my private work off campus for about $4000. I have 200 hours now and none of that was thanks to Riddle

Thoughts on Embry Riddle (ERAU)
How many times do we go over this each year? Its all personal. I love it and I hate it. Awesome campus, sweet location. Pricey (Scholarship though...), stuck up rich kids. Shitty pilots for the most part. I love the Meteorology Dept and I'm glad i decided to come here. The det isnt that bad either. YMMV.

Pets in the military (dogs, cats)
All, I searched for this and didn't find anything relevant. I'm still in ROTC, but i'm looking at getting a dog. IF (read: IF!) I get into UPT, whats the deal with having pets? Should I just plan on forkin him over to my parents through training or not even consider getting one? -LL

Smart phone
I have the ppc6700 with Verizon, but they also make a version for sprint. I love it because it does everything i need it to do and nothing i dont. It has the whole Microsoft Office Suite plus Media Player. E-mail and AIM on the go is also an added bennefit. I dont have a data plan since everywhere i'm at usually has wi-fi. Only the Treo 700wx and the ppc6700 have wi-fi and it is a BIG help. I have a 1GB card that holds plenty of music and bluetooth headsets that are pretty good. You can find one on eBay for about $150 with all the accessories. Its

Satellite Radio - xm or sirius?
The one thing i didnt like about signing up with Sirius is that they made me pay the $xx.xx per month up front...So i had to charge $200 something to my card after spending $200 something for a reciever. Didnt seem worth it at the time, so I took it back.

Jeep Wrangler
I had an '87 Wrangler for a few years and I loved it. "2" to the thing about the hardtops...they are pretty much useless. But you can sell it and get a pretty nice soft top. There are plenty of accessory websites that you can use to upgrade/customize your rig. Thats the one nice thing about jeeps...you hardly see 2 that are the same. I went 130,000 before I had to replace the engine...and the only reason i did is because I beat her up (sts) on the trails of Northern Michigan. I laugh whenever I see "A/C" for a Jeep....always seemed useless to me (I never had it). I've done a lot of work on my Jeep and I'm pretty familiar with them, feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.

Arnold Air Society (AAS)
AAS does not factor into the ranking at all. Granted, most AAS cadets are more active in their det, meaning more face time, higher commander ranking, etc....but being an AAS member does not make you have a higher ranking for a rated slot. A lot of the cadets that categorized here (Det 157) aren't AAS/SW members I hope to be one of them soon Hope that helped!

Headset questions
They work just fine with the convertor. No real difference in quality or anything if thats what youre asking about.
