Because they're ghey...

True, if the airline requires it. Delta and United do not require it and will accept your app without an ATP. US Airways doesn't require it and the last time American hired they didn't require it either. One of our guys asked their recruiter if he should just go get it and the captain looked at him like he was an idiot. He said we give it to you in training (STS), so unless you have a couple grand burning a hole in your pocket, I wouldn't waste your money. He still got interviewed and hired. But yes, I know FedEx/SWA require it and it never hurts to check the container, but it's not necessarily a requirement. You will only need to have an ATP to fly pax. So unless they are proposing a rule that says you have to have an ATP to be hired, you should be ok. Most airlines will give you your ATP as part of your check ride in training (that's how I got mine). But all the ones I have seen recently just say you need to have ATP mins. I'm only pointing this out because if they don't give the mil an exception, this could cost a lot of $$$$. Being military, I can't see that not having your ATP will hurt you too much, especially if they truly need as many pilots as predicted. Now if you really want SWA/FedEx then you're pretty much screwed into paying the money.

All the stuff listed will be covered in any airline training and most likely will suffice. Most airlines don't actually require you to have your ATP, just the mins and the written. If you're going to try the SWA route, then I'm sure higher power will adjust their program if needed. Undoubtedly there will be a mil exception.

I thought landing at the right airport, with your gear down, was the minimum standard? ORM should have stopped this flight. Two IPs in the same aircraft...horrible idea. Hate flying the family model, even worse when someone is in the back (minus incentive rides).

For those that don't know. https://www.ajc.com/n...eam-memb/nQKwH/ I'm guessing, these two won't be posing for any pics together anytime soon. Proves the saying, no matter how hot she is, someone is tired of fucking her. FIFY

Looks like we've found a portrait of Rainman.

If your base allows alcohol on the property... Sadly there are many that do not (even for fini-flights).

Same here! So is rape! The psychological damage that rape causes, lasts a lifetime.

Haha...I don't know about your squadron, but we are not issuing leather jackets anymore. The ones they did issue for the last couple years were complete shit and fell apart quick. Or penis amputation (for rape of course)?

That's next on the chopping block...

Lots of units use them for their 2 week summer camps (not just flying squadrons), Navy and Marines use them as well. Some units det out of them to help support SEALs/JTACs/etc... at the local range. Generally CRTCs have lots of airspace/ranges nearby which = more training per sortie. They also use them to quick turn or pit for more training as well. Lots of LEO (cops/swat/airport SRT) use them for various training exercises.

Heritage...What is this heritage you speak of?

Holy shit! Oh whew!

Haha, try... www.leroyjenkins.com or www.stopplayingstupidgamesandgobangchicks.com

This is what I mean, why is there Reserve and Guard on the same base, basically doing the same mission? Kinda like having two squadrons of herks at MSP (1 ANG/1 RES). WTF? With how small the reserves are, why are we funding a complete and separate competent? Ex...we have an A staff for both AFRC and ANG...seems like lots of wasted $$$$.

Whoa, whoa, whoa....some of the best times in my career were spent at the River Club!

It surprises me that we're standing up a new reserve wing. In the current fiscal & associate environment, why don't we roll the AFRC into the ANG?

Could not agree more.

Dynamic, Avenge, L3, and another one that flies O-2s. I'm not exactly sure what one he worked for, but I know he was paid very well for his services. But I do not agree that there is no difference between them and all our ISR assets. Show me where American companies are using civilians to fly fighters/bombers, so I can go apply. I would make a shit ton more $$$$ than I do in the military. Then I could keep buying guns to replace the ones I keep losing in the lake. It's not uncommon to have civilian test pilots, and/or civilians to be in charge of a major program. This is especially true in AFMC. Oh they will apply, because they will be paid generously (see civilian contractors I mentioned above...minus the O-2 company). Or they could contract out a lot of lift, as we do now, to Atlas/Omni/Evergreen/etc. Yup, stil a military person on title 10 pulling the trigger.

The place I was in had tons of 22LR ammo. Limit 5 bricks. I bought my limit...not sure why as I don't have a 22 anymore.

So I was checking out the list floating around Facbook that AF.mil released and noticed redacted lines. So I compared those items to the list on military times....sure enough all the lines that had an action taken of "turn over to SFS/JAG/OSI," were redacted in the AF.mil list...

Shooters can't be outsourced but just about anything else can. A guy in our squadron had a gig making 150+ flying a Kingair or Dash-8 around the AOR for a contractor.

So I'm assuming if he didn't get an excellent or a 100% on the closed book, he would give up his command? So, is a speeding ticket something you have to report to your CC? If so, this is the first I've heard of this.

This is not the first person I've heard say this.
