No sparkly paint job? I'm surprised.

Cool. Where? Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!

And highways and dry lake beds. Don't think it has been done in a while, however.

Had several Army hello guys as students in the T-38. As a group, they did well in the program but they all were former Warrant Officers and none were the SRO.

Washed out a -130 Nav with an Article 15 as a going away present. Don't be a stupid ass douche nozzle.

I think my record for logging non-flight flight time is 7 hours 17 minutes to fly from Tampa to Miami. Brake release to brake parked.

I bet the Ukrainians wish they had been able to keep a neighboring different ethnic group out of their country now that the different ethnic group would rather identify with their mother country.

During low level nav training, My A-10 IP: Are we invading Mexico? Me: No. Why? IP: You just flew across the border.

Coincidence??? I think not.

I just didn't use email. As a part-timer, every time I showed up, I required a new password or they needed to re-map printers or something and it became a royal pain and waste of my time...so I quit checking and happily flew my ass off.. After about a year and half, some guy shows up at my door asking if I could please delete some stuff because it is clogging up their server. I had something in the neighborhood of 1500 emails.

That map strap might work. I've got two kneeboards. One has a narrow 1-1 1/2 inch elastic strap and the other is 3-4 inches. Both have the clear strap which would go over the line-up card. The narrower elastic strap isn't as secure as the wider one and it wobbles around a bit. We carry a Hyperjuice battery at work. It is slightly bigger than a deck of cards and it will recharge an iPad twice.

They don't train those guys to exercise judgement. Years ago, I'm going through the crash school at Norton (yes, a long time ago) and I'm out for a run. I've run the perimeter of the base and was heading back to the Q's when a security police car passes me, cuts in front of me, and a dude jumps out with a shotgun and levels it at me. I am armed with a running tank top, shorts, and New Balance shoes. Idiot. I was not detained and allowed to go on my way shortly thereafter. In a heated discussion with the desk sergeant later, I was told somebody stole something from the BX. Lucky them, it I wanted it, it would be on the truck coming Tuesday.

Got an iPad mini w/retina display in an Otterbox. At work, we use an iPad 2 with a RAM mount. The mount will hold the mini. For small plane flying (Garmin Pilot), I strap the Otterbox cover to my kneeboard and then clip the mini over the stap and into the cover.

Haven't stepped foot into the BX in a couple years. I would have a list of things I needed and the BX would not have them but, oddly enough, the items were always allegedly on a truck arriving on next Tuesday.

If that marshmallow Easter bunny replica of the Jonger was a little smaller it would be life size.

After 30 years of flying, a MEL ATP and 12,000 hours a variety of jets large and small, I finally got my SEL in a C-172 via a Commercial Inst check last Saturday. Did the Figure 8 around pylons, chandelle, stalls, short field takeoff/landing, soft field takeoff/landing, power off 180 and normal takeoff/landing. Probably left something off that list. Was it perfect? No, but I passed. The check pilot wasn't expecting perfection, he was expecting safe. Flying small aircraft is dramatically different from the large jets we are used to. If you plan on carrying family and friends, I would highly recommend doing those things that will improve your understanding of how the aircraft performs. It doesn't take much weight or winds to start making large differences in how that thing flies. Adjusting my brain around those ideas took a little time and practice. That, and the fact I'm no longer sitting 15 feet off the ground in the flare.

And we certainly can't let them see the big board!

Who is the most brain damaged, the toe sucker or the woman dumb enough to believe him? http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/Walmart-toe-sucker-sought-786543

If you entered the military in Texas (on your DD214), you may also be eligible for the Hazlewood Act. 150 hours of state tuition that can be transferred to spouse or children.

Tree..

For the non-Jesus Nut crowd, what is this "Trucker Comm" of which you speak?

Women can have Furry February and stop shaving legs, etc.

Camouflage it and label it "Combat Mailbox."

Not sure how I was lucky enough to avoid this ass clown but glad that did. Sucked to be you guys that fell under his reign.

This. I ended up with some ungodly number of emails numbering in the thousands. Strangely enough, the world kept turning, I was still flying, and only some I.T. geek called asking if I wanted to keep my account open because the server was filling up.
