Another Malaysian 777 Crash (assuming the first one did crash)
I say 50/50 chance. It was either shot down or it wasn't.

TPS Contractor-Leased Platforms
I know Pax River still gets aircraft from the Commemorative Air Force, but I am not sure if the lease them or just borrow them, but they routinely get a B-25 and an Albatross. They also borrow a C-17 periodically.

Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
That is the price you pay for being a niners fan. I got it all back every year because I live in Seattle with a real football team.

Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
Guys, the bonus is 25K a year not 18K. You get about 18K in the first check and you get the rest back at tax time. Unless you make more than 250K a year.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
There is a better work around... if anyone cares. Being on an Army network I have issues with sending Encrypted emails all the time since they use a different GAL. Solution, if the individual sends you a digitally signed email you can select the certificate, click on "details" and then "Trust the Certificate". You will then be able to send encrypted to that individual.

Not very good. Since losing the Super Bowl he has been kind of depressed.

FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)
Because the Squadron Commanders are telling them morale is high and the numbers they are given tell them retention is fine.

Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate
Well, that sounds better. The Sheppard Air site says "New prerequisites for the ATP practical test go into effect on August 1, 2014. The links below will provide you with more information:" It is either semantics or fear mongering to make money. After 1 Aug 2016 I think the FAA's new rule is unsustainable. There was an article posted here earlier that talked about the requirement that the CTP ground school instructors must have an ATP. Where are they going to find people with an ATP willing to work for what ground schools pay? If they pay them more, how much more are schools going to cost? "They" are AOPA and my bad, they (AOPA) said 20K. Go back to page 10 some of the articles are posted there.

New Air Force Mission is to Sing, Dance, and Entertain! … in air, space and cyberspace.

Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) Certificate
1. The way I read it the requirements that start 1 Aug 2014 are to take the written and/or the Flight Check. So getting the written done before the change may not do you any good. Am I wrong? 2. They have already said it will be north of 20K. I still believe the FAA will come to their senses and say that the training Military pilots receive throughout their career meets the new standard, even though military training programs and Sims are not Part 141. I do not mean this to say we will get an ATP mil equivalent, I mean it will be business as usual when you reach ATP mins.... Written, then flight check.

Classic Thread - Security Forces (SFS) Tales
I am certain that Texas would have to fall into the sea before you would move to California or New Jersey. Actually, I do not think there are any circumstances, real or imagined, that could get you to live in California or New Jersey.

FY 14 Force Management Program (RIF, VSP, TERA)
Really? You know your line number? Please explain how that worked out for AirTran pilots. My count says the #1 guy dropped to #1,648 when they merged with SWA.
