Is there a “just fly like a regular jet” mode?

They’ve since apologized for the mistake and corrected it.

TL;DR? Or at least a time stamp

Hypothesis: it cooked the books enough to increase the production numbers for one particular leader’s tenure.

They do. We did away with black t-shirts and now everyone graduates UPT.

Senior military leaders often commit a perception error by assuming the rest of the world has been following their problems the entire time and will understand their solutions. Obviously, the man on the street has no idea about the micro-politics that take place in the AF, much less AETC. So when the opposing sides of the media discover that our attempt at solving perceived organizational bias is literally segregation, those AETC leaders are going to have a really hard time explaining their decisions in the one sentence they’ll be afforded.

Again, it sounds like you guys could solve this mystery annually at Gunfighter Flag! Post results here.

Sounds like some flying competitions will be in order. Same jets, one has a WSO in it.

Heinous. Be sure to cite the root causes in the AIBs.

Machines do difficult things easily and make easy things difficult.

Just what the MAF needs, worse hands. No way this is real.

Just imagine if the drone was rocket-powered instead of air breathing! Like Mach 4 speed. And I bet we could make it pull 30g. And of course, there’s no human in there so we could give it a one-way mission. So we’d better make them cheap - like less than $1m each - and light so one fighter could control 8 or even as many as 20 of them. They can even have little radars or IR sensors in their noses, but they wouldn’t need them until close in because the controlling fighter (the mothership!) is guiding them most of the way to their target.

Where was the AI getting the human PPLI from? The human was using his eyeballs, I suspect the AI had perfect data.

There’s a disorder called Face Blindness that keeps people from recognizing different faces. These people (maybe including brickhistory) simply have Flanker Blindness and don’t understand why the rest of us would care. edit: someone please post the Facebook link

My opinion: morale and operational efficiency are degraded when functions that must work together are in different commands. U-2s at overseas locations are mostly organized as every function under one umbrella: ops, mx, intel, life support, supply, logistics, personnel, comm, and even security forces in some cases. There are always some bumps in the road, but everyone knows who they work for: their U-2 pilot commander that suits up and blasts off on a mission right in front of them. How I know that cross-functional team model is effective: the exact same people RTB home and start working for different commanders that report to group commanders who report to a wing commander, and everything slows down.

Also at M9 qual.

How about the “Ukrainian” (aka Russian) honeypots? It wouldn’t be Xanadu without the overt espionage threat and all the bros talking around things

That’s the Bacchus D

Wait until the Space Force realizes we have all the Spice here on the Earth

You may have heard other students and IPs saying, “If you ain’t first, you’re last,” but that’s just not true. You can be second, third, fourth...hell you can even be fifth.

@FLEA if you hate the flight suit so much, just wear the 2-piece. The rest of us don’t have the same problems you’re experiencing.

We want lighter weight suits and helmets, but those Space X ones look like shit to me. Plus, there’s no parachute harness, LPUs, helmet tie-down, survival stuff, or helmets that turn. I also want to see one rapid-D in the chamber to 70k’.

There are also the ejection seat min/max weight limits, which can’t really be fixed with adjustable pedals.

Amazing. Seven of those guys never even made it to general or astronaut.

Lol
