Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Majestik Møøse replied to MDDieselPilot's topic in General Discussion
Korea’s BAC max is 0.03% now. Including, unbelievably, people on bicycles, scooters, and hover boards. https://www.military.com/daily-news/2019/06/28/new-law-drops-bac-limit-03-all-troops-stationed-south-korea.html -
What time do you show for your airline?

Well they could at least double they pay and save money over training the replacements. Triple, I don’t know because the charts cut off with an upward vector.

Records management? Is that a job in a squadron? What do they do?

I think Tom Cruise has figured out the retention problem. Line flying O-6, qual’d in at least 4x planes simultaneously, and personal motorcycle storage right on the flight line. Edit: especially since the taxpayers will think this is reality anyway after this movie comes out.

Lol, Alan Dershowitz was Epstein’s defense attorney for soliciting sex with minors in 2008. Now he’s named in this case. Usually I’m and innocent until proven guilty kind of guy, but in this case, yeah, it’s probably all true.

Anyone used Turo on a TDY and gotten reimbursed?
Majestik Møøse replied to BADFNZ's topic in General Discussion
That’s laughable at first look, but I actually get it. Every group has some kind of bureaucratic boogeyman threatening an action that’s never really happened. It’s their version of getting “violated” by some third world ATC. The old guys perpetuate the myth to the new guys until the newest guys realize there’s not actually a monster under the bed. -

Majestik Møøse replied to BADFNZ's topic in General Discussion
True story: needed a midsize car for a 3-week TDY. Was already at location so I just went to the National desk, gave them my Emerald Club Executive number (because Amex), got a $630 estimate, and handed over my GTC for payment. Do the right thing, you know? As soon as the guy swiped the GTC, the estimate changed to $1250 because it automatically switched to the a government ”contracted” rate. So I elected to use my Amex to get the bill back down to $630, probably in violation of whatever kickbacks the JTR is supporting, but better for the taxpayer. There’s some kind of shady shit going on there. -

AMC is a chickenshit organization, no doubt, but that guy was over the grass at 10-20’. The left truck landed well right of centerline. This wasn’t a case of showing off by a talented pilot in front of a crowd, this was (or looks to be from that angle) a heinous skills mistake followed by a poor decision not to go around.

This is not at all surprising. I’m sure she had her Command Chief right there beside her.

Serious question: What office is responsible for figuring out what the future looks like and what to buy? SAF/AQ?

Hey man, the bandwagon is going the other way right now -

Are you talking about the zero/thin clients? I’ve recently experienced them on NIPR and SIPR, and they are computing cancer. They require a network connection to a central server to operate at all. Way worse than the laptops. Every login is like the first time. The lagging keyboard and mouse inputs are screen punching bad. It’s a 100% worse Air Force comm experience, if you can believe that. If your base is talking about getting these, push back with all your might.

65th Aggressor Sq Reactivating With F-35s

Oh no argument there. I’d take the over. -
You would think that saving the CSAF’s life would help guarantee job security and funding for your programs.

65th Aggressor Sq Reactivating With F-35s
Majestik Møøse replied to MC5Wes's topic in General Discussion
It’s not cost effective (or even possible) to build/acquire a supersonic LO drone fleet that will accurately represent what an enemy may have in 10 years. What is possible: mixed in with actual Aggressors are virtual enemies accurately displayed on Blue Air sensors. Mesh networked, executing canned actions or making AI decisions, and represented by whatever intel we have about them. New threat models appear quickly and are updated as required. It would be expensive AF to make it work on all the radars, but a lot cheaper than replicating a 100-ship LO threat using actual air breathers. AKA LVC. -
That’s the crux of why fans are mad about this season’s writing. Even though the GOT world gives writers the ability to explain away physically impossible plot tools (the scorpions, fast traveling) using “magic”, they choose to ignore both physics and magic.

65th Aggressor Sq Reactivating With F-35s
Majestik Møøse replied to MC5Wes's topic in General Discussion
Clark, have you ever dealt with acquisitions? None of that UCAS shit exists, and the F-35s they want to use we’ve already bought. A Stingray tech demo is a far cry from an 8-ship of F-35s. You’ll be retired by the time someone figures out how to get an 8-ship of supersonic stealth drones to take off and land from Nellis. -
What do you expect for someone with a senior officer qual who insists on getting first pick of the sorties? And based on the last episode she has a poor understanding of how far she can trespass a WEZ.

Both hook for route abort procedures after entering inadvertent IMC. Also, do those things have to refill those flame tanks or what? They looked to be conserving their ability to rain death until the armies merged.
