Air Force: Pilot yields wings after low flyover
Still pisses me off that he can't frame the flyover picture that ended his career because of that asshat #4 out of position.

T-6 Down at Laughlin
I could see that being a factor if the engine was shut off during the landing phases of flight.. but this was a rejoin so doubt the IP was lowering the flaps.

FAA OKs iPad for Pilots’ Charts
iPad2 Play World of Warcraft 4, while writing Harry Potter XI, while watching 18 separate videos of HD porn, while posting random shit on baseops, while finding a 19th video of HD porn, all the while shooting a High Altitude Approach down to mins... and you want the latter on an MFD?

Thousands may soon use smart phones on job
"It may or may not be one make and model” I like that quote the best, let's confuse the living sh!t out of everyone! Maybe the GAO won't be needed during this acquisition at least... and if the AF is blowing more money on crap we don't need, they better at least give me one...

Multi-generations that flew the T-38
My grandpa was denied a 38 slot because of height, ended up in the KC-135 which he loved every minute of. When I talked to him he said it was the golden years where if you wanted to be a fighter pilot, you got to be a fighter pilot. No track select bullshit. Seems 6'5'' was too tall back then, maybe its still too tall now? I forget..

C130J (Herc) info
I just dropped a 130J to Dyess, anyone have info on what I could expect? I know they are still acquiring the J's, so since their numbers are few I was wondering what the deployment cycle is like right now? Are they deploying with the other 130 models? Is it a separate squadron or is everything integrated? Another dumb question, I know not all 17 guys get airdrop qualified, what is the percentage for 130 dudes? Any insight would be awesome

Reactive Airway disease
I was prescribed albuterol and some other inhaler in my 22 years before applying to pilot training... at Brooks I was given the 'start looking for another job.' I took the pulmonary exam on steroids at brooks, and if you pass that it's undeniable that you are fine. I have a waiver for asthma and in the waiver it says I dont have asthma...so my current flight doc just saw that and said he's going to try to get my waiver removed period. Granted the AETC surgeon still has to sign off on the waiver... so it took a while and I was still cringing for 6 weeks till I finally got it to work.
