T-1 then palace chase to T-1 reservist until a major calls.

Any names released yet?

CMSAF sounds pretty racist.

If that’s what you want to do, get hired by a UPT Reserve squadron and go to USAFR. If you want to go back to your Guard unit in 4 years, see if they’ll take you back. There’s no 1288-type process to go from a state asset to a federal asset.

Unemployment numbers are meaningless right now.

At least this guy attacked a taxiing airplane. I guess that makes him the smart one.

AU Portal is up right now. Couldn't get in this morning.

I made the jumpseat commute to a unit 9 hours away for 6 months and gave up. I don’t think it’s long-term realistic, especially starting out. If the unit is #1, move to your unit city and figure out the civilian job there. Edit: I’m assuming you’re flying since you’re on a pilot board, in which case once a month is also unrealistic unless that’s once for many days.

My ROTC offering even specified “Electrical Engineering.” Nah.

Don’t be fooled. The Bobs will put any of us on the street to save themselves. Even SWA.

What do 16R4s do? "Planning and Programming" Is that XP? Lots of TR and IMA openings nationwide.

Yep. Created out of thin air. Looks like a good job by APA.

"Offering early retirements" means nothing in modern airlines. With no A plan at most carriers (and those with A plans aren't hurting right now), you walk away with nothing extra if you leave at age 61 or 64+364.

Attendance will suffer, either on a person basis from the media fear-mongering or because local governing bodies will outlaw mass gatherings.

Holding out hope that any CSAF will materially improve life for airmen is just asking for disappointment. The best we can hope is he just doesn't further f it up.

Seems like a warfighter at least, and hasn’t been out of the ops world for too long.

At least we can finally quit pretending they’re going to maintain a functioning Air Force after we’re gone.

“Pot of gold” is Irish cultural appropriation.

The only thing keeping you from getting called for the interview might be felonies and drugs, but there are still plenty of ways to f up the interview, and not giving it the proper respect is the first way.

Since you asked twice, I’ll assume it’s a genuine question. Doing virtual stuff at home. Gotta have a telecommute agreement, approval, etc. Usually CBTs, OPRs...

Wear the ball cap.

Lightweight Vr I'll believe. With 132k of stuff in the back, low level, in turbulence? Not so much. I'm not trying to discredit the paper Clark linked, but when they assume 100kt retardant drop speeds, it makes me question the rest of their assumptions.

That’s cool, but can a C-17 fly 100 knots!?!

This seems appropriate here... We're definitely off scale high.
