  1. In my years at Carolina, Reggie Love (Dook basketball/football player) thought it was a good idea to get pass-out drunk at a fraternity house in Chapel Hill and ended up with teabag photos on the interwebs. No, I was not there.
  2. I was referring to the CBM incident, which was an intentional gear-up.
  3. I landed on the center runway a few minutes after that intentional gear-up. I was surprised at how quickly it stopped and with very little damage.
  4. You flew some Arabian horses around in a grey and maroon cattle car?
  5. Anyone want to guess on the total take for the current eligibles? The percentage I heard today (thus far) is barely double digits.
  6. Because the overmanned career fields made unnecessary promotions. The answer is very clear-- LAF Rated and LAF non-Rated boards.
  7. Pros and Cons to this I suppose. My board met 20 months ago, announced 15 months ago, and I still have to wait 1,000 more line numbers before I can pin-on O-4.
  8. AF Times says 74.4% for IPZ. That's the only stat I've seen.
  9. Posted 24 hours before the newscast, I think spur may be the legitimate source, confirmed by the NTSB intern.
  10. The civilian training I've received confirms this. It's Automate-Aviate-Navigate-Communicate. 180 degrees out from military flying. If the jet isn't doing what you want, click and autopilot is off. Back when I was a UPT instructor 5+ years ago, the students weren't allowed to use the autopilot in the first block of training. I'm curious if that's changed by now.
  11. Ch 6: Contact check complete! "Starting my online masters degree in International Relations."
  12. Comm brevity: Aimpoint. Airspeed. Centerline.
  13. Increase ADSC by one day each time the following occurs: 1) eat at the base Burger King 2) Shop at the Commissary/BX Decrease ADSC by one day: 1) Purchase a meal at the "Club"
  14. So matmacwc and 11Fs, which would you rather have on your wing, a FAIP or a First Assignment Drone Operator?
  15. A Major FAIP? LMAO Most FAIPs finish at most around a 2 year Capt, right?
  16. What's the solution? Separate rated and non-rated boards? Let the shoes who have racked up multiple AADs because they've never deployed and work 5 hours a day go against their own.
  17. It has to be cheaper to ship MRAPs back via land/rail and eventually sea back to the US, right? There's no rush in getting them back to the States... hell, leave them in Germany until we invade <insert middle eastern country here> next.
  18. Anybody know what happened to the guy who started the now-defunct raptorpilot.com? He was a few classes behind me in UPT and I think ended up at Charleston...
  19. I haven't received a new green flight suit in over 5 years. Someone refresh my memory on how many I'm authorized per year by reg?
