  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  4. OMG mermaid handle beer mugs!!!! This will single handedly stop 6-9 rapes this year... This is hypocritical considering the military is cool with the USO bringing them over to the AOR for morale... They forgot this one! These people have lost their minds! Soon, our thoughts will be monitored while at work, and anything remotely sexual will be censored, so you don't even think it. Also, from here on out, while in active service, sex will be allowed for procreation only and in the missionary position.

    To the SIG fans out there, the 2013 LEO/MIL discount prices are out. https://www.sigsauer.com/upFiles/CmsContent/documents/2013%20LE%20Price%20List%20-%20IOP%2001-03-2013.pdf
  6. This isn't the real world...it's the fake world of the IG. Kinda reminds me of a story from a Vietnam era book. The squadron had to do an ORI, in country, during the war and they failed. Guess who kept flying combat missions. One of the findings was the jets weren't painted IAW the reg (sharks teeth under the nose), the bosses response was "Noted."
  7. Eh, pretty standard "teething" issues with a new aircraft. I wouldn't be too worried about. Never fly the A-model of anything.

    Make a program similar to the FFDO program. If there is no $$$$ for a FFDO type program then there are tons of programs that teachers could attend at their cost...I'm certain there are plenty of people who would gladly do this. If the school can't afford full time security (which a majority can not, and our government certainly can't either) this is the best option. We already have teachers/admin carrying weapons in schools with no problems. https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Latest-News-Wires/2012/1220/In-Texas-a-town-where-the-teachers-carry-guns-video Edit: found this link entertaining...standard if you're not LEO and own a gun your a gun crazy/ guns are bad, style article. https://www.cnn.com/2012/12/19/opinion/granderson-guns-in-schools/index.html

  13. There is a special place in the bowels of hell for the designer of JMPS! But other than that...ya dude, it's great! I JUST WANT A FUCKING BULLSEYE MAP!!!!!!!!
  14. Especially for that...woof!
  15. Rainman, did you just tell yourself to simmer down? Not good...early stages of senility setting in!
  16. So let me get this straight...not everyone in the Air Force deploys on the same cycle?!?
  17. Fixed...thanks M2! That's the last time I drunkenly start clicking things to see what they do! BTW, I was looking at the members list...how the hell did you get 2,147,483,647 likes?
  18. So I fucked up and changed my theme from IP.Board to IP.Board (Pre 3.2). I can only post from my phone now and I can't seem to find the Change theme button in this format. Anyone have ideas for switching it back?
  19. Guilty until proven innocent. Seems to be standard...
  20. You can say that again!
  21. RC: See above quote...

  25. If you're Guard, get your medical squadron to put you on the contact lense program ASAP. As long as you're on it before you show up, they will let you wear contacts. I was glad I did this, I hate flying with glasses.
