uhhello

I helped strap in many a incentive rider in the D model and was very surprised at the little amount of seat briefing that was given by the various pilots. I got a ride a few years in and dude just said hey you're a crew chief, you know the drill 🙂

Safety is safety. Ground safety investigation was started I imagine. Could be wrong.

I can't remember, can info given under safety privilege be used in criminal proceedings?

Invol Manslaughter charges brought against SP

Valid

Such a stupid own goal for a minuscule amount of people.

I've seen some super safties on those and its fucking nutzo

Baro alt variations amongst the fleet in that airspace is very interesting. This accident was going to happen no matter who was piloting at some point if it was allowed to continue.

People are so fucking weird. That ladies husband is king of cucks.

Pffttt. You just fly it into the big net. It’s easy.

I'd be fine with cameras if there is no private money involved. It always goes wrong when it's for profit. Everywhere its been tried. The UK has been at it for decades. Last time I left they had placed average speed cameras on the motorways. Plate is logged going through checkpoints. If you make it through in less time than standard, you were speeding at some point. The mobile units were the most effective at generating revenue though. They'd pop up and generate a couple hundred tickets in the span of a few hours. I just looked and its estimated that the UK has 7,000+ traffic enforcement cameras. A giant chunk of those aren't operational and they still get people to slow down unless you're aware and gambling that 'this one hasn't flashed in months' so i'll risk it.

AF mandated inspections for all m18s was released. Essentially removing the FCU and inspecting for burrs and issues with the sear.

The pilot and his girlfriend both arrested for fucking their 11 year old daughter starting when she was only 6.

Spanish air force pilot has been praised for his “exemplary speed and professionalism”, after he performed a maneuver to avoid a flock of birds during the International Air Festival in Gijon. https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/clyr2qx0y87o https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/clyr2qx0y

FST is voluntary and refusing has no automatic repercussions. Cop can still arrest you for DUI with probable cause. You can then take the station breathalyzer or blood test. Refusing either is implied consent violation and 180 day suspension appealable after 15 days.

They've tried the 'upgrade' process already. Anything short of a full buyback won't pass muster with general public. Anything they do will open them to further lawsuits. Unless there is some new testing that completely removes responsibility from the gun itself, it's not going to be pretty.

Does anyone in the states do roadside breathalyzer's anymore?

If a cop is asking you to do FST, he already thinks you’re going to fail. He’s just looking for more proof.

SIG came in WAY under what the other test submissions offered. It also offered the modular functionality that the others didn't.

The added manual safety doesn't have any effect on the M18 over the 320. The 320 was/is having issues without the manual safety. You aren't wrong that the safety is a dumb govt requirement though.

From what I've been able to read, all the FBI testing was essentially inconclusive due to the testing requirment modifications that needed to be done to the guns. Couldn't entirely rule out that the modifications didn't exacerbate the problem. Where there is smoke, there is fire. Zero reason to field/employ this system because of that. The AF got 125,000 M18s for about $150 a pop.

Army carry conditions are tailored to the lowest common dumbass. For some reason the AF carry condition is tailored to the af patrol cop in the hood of base housing.

Well this is gonna get REAL interesting https://www.warren.af.mil/News/Releases/Article/4251188/90th-missile-wing-confirms-on-base-airman-fatality/ Confirmed M18 discharge while in the holster apparently being set down on desk. Global Strike has mandated no M18 use until investigation complete. I'm sure the other commands will follow suit.

The daughter was making tik toks capitalizing off of it the next day 🙂 Edit: Turns out he doesn't have a daughter and some entrepreneuristic chick is saying she is
