SUPT ops going forward...specifically to IP's
I would say that depends on the college you select. AMU only gave me 6 credits.

A new bomber. Anyone think the AF procurment people can get this right?
So a B-1 can hit 84 DMPIs with 84 unguided weapons? Technically I think you're wrong. So what about the B-2 carrying 80 GBU-38s? That is 80 individual DMPIs so I suppose that drives the cost down right.

(DCA) TSA - Pre✓™ Trusted Traveler Program for Service Members
Most airports will allow you to go through the 1st class line too. Obviously nothing changes with the screening procedures but at least the lines are normally much shorter.

Motorcycle Riders Thread
The only one I know of came out several months ago (AFI91-207 dated 27 Oct 11) but really doesn't have any major changes. It clarifies the safety courses and encourages sportbike riders to attend a sportbike course. You may hear rumors that this is mandatory but it's not stated that way in this regulation. I suppose a base can be more restrictive though. The biggest change is that all riders must be entered into the Motorcycle Unit Safety Tracking Tool (MUSTT) database.

BACN BD-700 / E11A
1: yielding or likely to yield a reward : valuable, satisfying We were a valuable asset to the guys on the ground and were involved in multiple instances where our team made the difference to either the capture or killing of the dirkas. My tour was satisfying. Maybe others flying fighters or a bomber that is actively involved would not find it as rewarding.

I personally believe the MC-12 would be more rewarding plus I still got almost 700 hrs in about 7 months.
