But now everyone meets their O4 board about two years earlier, so the timeline stays the same. Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network mobile app

You didn’t. Just commenting on the topic in general. The idea of “knocking off the rust” is a joke though. You have to actually have some experience to rust… Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network mobile app

There is a HUGE difference between a T-6 only pilot and those who went before. The 100-ish hours of experience attained in T-1s/T-38s is huge, especially when addressed in the context of a syllabus designed for someone with over TWICE the experience.

Retired almost 15 years ago, so take it for what it’s worth. 7 baseline adjustments over 20 years. Never off flight status for hearing. At my VA compensation physical, the audiologist stops my hearing test, opens the door and asks me “are you really not hearing the tones?” Reset/Regen, and 15 minutes later she asks “Has anyone ever told you you need hearing aids? You’re legally deaf in the higher frequencies” I was still on flight status at the time. Don’t even think the AF is looking out for your interests. And claim EVERYTHING!

I’m 15 years retired, but still working with my community. Some CGOs are excited and motivated about their careers, but most are just passing through and collecting a paycheck on their way to the airlines. I need to find the “no more golden apples” speech on here and repost. It’s more applicable today than it ever was in the late 90s… Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network mobile app

Political Correctness. Camaraderie and Esprit de Corps are dead in most (not all) of the current military leadership. Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network mobile app

UPT/FAIP world in 1990 was the same. Our WG/CC had the keys to the O Club bar that didn’t officially open until 1630. He opened it and unlocked the beer cooler at noon every Friday. Sent from my iPad using Baseops Network mobile app
