  1. It makes me feel really safe when I get randomed 96.69% of the time but then my illegal immigrant passengers are flying for free with no ID or background check AND yet I have to show TSA 2 forms of ID.
  2. Russian landing ship, allegedly carrying ammunition resupplies, turned into a submarine: Video
  3. Not eligible for bonus, not eligible to promote, and will deploy if combat coded...wow. Sounds like a great deal!
  4. Outstanding! But one point of correction: based on the title I was thinking it was a Kirov or another Slava (remember when they sank the Moskva back in 2022) class...the ship in this video was "only" a Corvette.
  5. Sorry to hear. But, it sounds like you have a great attitude and that is very important. One of my buddies was in a similar situation and ended up getting force shaped back in 2010 time frame...he went on to go to a big name business school, owns his own airplane, and is a multimillionaire. He mostly regrets not serving in the AF up to his personal standard, but I'm sure he isn't sad while driving his Aston Martin.
  6. Disclaimer: I've only flown the C-40, not an airline 737, but I'm now flying the 320. The Guppy's FMS, overall flows, VNAV, climb rate and stopping distance are way better than the bus, IMO. 2 cup holders, hooray! Jump seat is meh...deer stand is torture. The Bus is slightly quieter at cruise but takes for ever to get there. Not monitoring the engine start is neat. The autoflap retract on a heavy climb out is weird since you basically have to overspeed it then trust the automation to prevent an actual overspeed. The lack of an auto let down ability at TOD is annoying. But it's super easy to "fly" and I do enjoy the tray table. Jump seats way better. Overall, I'll fly which ever one results in a better schedule. Oddly, at my domicile the bus is more junior than the guppy on the FO side so that's why I picked it.
  7. F-22's doing CAS? Ron Swanson as President?! What's next? Cats and dogs living together?
  8. I didn't get the joke at first on OE when my CKA remarked that the FA's will cure 3/4's of the pax getting on early in wheelchairs. After we put the jet to sleep I noticed a good half dozen wheel chair pushers still waiting for pax when I got off and told them the jet was now empty.
  9. That is not a fact. Just because the dude is campaigning for support doesn't mean they are losing. They have been retaking an impressive amount of land that was previously occupied from the Russians (reference this post). Is it a tough situation? Yes, obviously...but the Ukrainian military will be much better off with modern weapons that can help minimize their casualties while maximizing Russian casualties. They have done wonders with HIMARs and artillery alone.
  10. I purposely bid Xmas eve & day and NYE & NY day (LAS overnight...could be dangerous) for the extra 21 hours in pay. That's what's great about the airlines. With enough seniority, you can do what you actually want.
  11. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1837895/putin-ready-to-end-war-ukraine-zelensky "Military actions are always a tragedy." - Putin So why did you start one?!
  12. In the Navy, any airplane can be a seaplane if you try hard enough.
  13. That's why I get my news from PornTube.
  14. That's actually a feature, not a bug, because now you get another 10% VA disability. These boots make you money!!! I don't recall if I got mine wide or not...but I hiked Banff (no ruck) and didn't have any complaints.
