1st female Air Force combat vet in run for congress
she's ahead by 133 votes with 200 left to potentially count (conditional provisional ballots requiring the voter to bring ID to the courthouse by 1700 tomorrow). Since the margin is less than 200 votes, there will be a recount.

you could put in an FOIA request to the AF Safety Center for HATR data related to controlled movement area violations.

some pretty hilarious inaccuracies in that list, and definitely some missing data there.

looks like McBlinky has made up some ground as some more districts report in. Not sure why reporting in District 2 is lagging so far behind the other districts...

oh that risk matrix was probably run decades ago, doubt anyone could find it now. You could press-to-test with an 847 if you wanted, but it would be YEARS before you'd see movement, since those changes would have to be coorded by all the MAJCOMs... ETA: and you'd probably have to have a working relationship with the individual who was re-writing that AFI or T.O. to even get the ball rolling. Doubt an 847 would make it past a MAJCOM staff to the OPR at the Air Staff.- Eliminating AF Waste (Fraud/Abuse too)
it's a risk acceptance thing. The AF has decided which is the appropriate level to accept certain risks, and to what authority it can be delegated. It's not just "because", it's because at some point, someone at MAJCOM staff ran a risk matrix and decided what made sense for what level assumes/accepts a given risk. I can definitely say you won't have much headway on lowering that acceptance level, but you may have better luck requesting an update to the MEL (using your example).- Tulsa viper crash

Breckey, you will get issued MASSIF when you get to your unit. It's our standard cold WX gear. But yes, it will be nice for it to be fully legal (right now can only wear in the SQ and out to the flightline/in flight, but not around base. YMMV downrange.- Veteran reemployment programs/initiatives?
anyone have a copy of the PMBOK Guide, 5th Edition in PDF form they can send my way? Or know where I can DL free?- Randolph AFB info
actually, it's an important question, now that the new JTR rules are taking effect. If he's PCSing, and this is a TDY enroute, then he will also be received BAH from his previous duty station, and will therefore have more $$ to spend on a place.- B-1 (Bone) questions
