The AFI is subordinate to the JTR. Unfortunately (in this case) we've spent a lot of years telling the AF it has to pay us IAW JTR because AFI was not in our favor and the JTR trumped AFI. Now the roles are flipped. As much as possible, don't land on bases when you go XC.

Worse. ARC guys generally have the ability to exit much faster and with a much less uncertain future. A guy already holding a purple seniority number, but on mil leave to work at JFHQ after a command tour, is not nervous about feeding his family "on the outside." I guess they'll learn that lesson the hard way.

You're probably asking the wrong forum, bro. Your audience will be more appropriate at APC, etc.

For those looking for an off-ramp from the operational ARC/AD, a little birdie told me that CAP-USAF has a Cat B opening in the Northeast Liaison Region (NELR). That means you get your AT days and TRS. It's posted on AFPC Secure > Reserve Vacancies > IMA Officer Vacancies > 95XX. Great gig for those of you slumming it around EWR/JFK/LGA/BOS/PHL.

5,800? Was that a typo? The number is a hell of a lot larger than 5,800. I had thought it was upwards of 30,000. Per year? 5,800 might be a little low if you count EVERY airline, but the big 6 are good for around 4k/yr. Certainly nowhere near 30k/yr.

You got it backwards.

Doesn't really matter. Fly a great jet and don't pass up an opportunity to shut up. Encourage your classmates to do the same.

One tweet says an engine a mile away. WTF. Do we know H or J?

Ah, I see now JBLM was code for McChord.

Bradley Manning in a dirndl? Pass.

Or the uniform AFI. Haven't read it myself, but I heard it's wordy.

As of 1019E, RAD is down 23.28% since yesterday's close.

I see you've found the secret to long term wealth.

Should I just text your girlfriend when I need something after hours?

Chang just created a new persona.

I'm well aware of the benefits available to active duty members and their spouses. Spent the better part of two decades enjoying those benefits. Did you know spouses were only recently afforded those protections? And yep, you get the same benefits for a couple years while you're on active orders. But once you leave the AD blanket, choose your hometown wisely. You're just another civilian employee as a DSG or Technician.

Generally once you move, register your cars, and register to vote, you're considered a resident of your new state. If you commute back and forth, you can keep your tax free. If you move your life to your new Guard unit, you're on the hook for their taxes. Sorry, life's a cruel bitch sometimes and taxes are one of her favorite pastimes.

I don't think your logic would survive an audit. The IRS has made examples of airline guys playing loose with residency rules. Be careful.

C for effort. I'm just not convinced 0.8 bodies per squadron will do much.

Too bad they couldn't get a better announcer, though. They got some no name local.

There are IMA jobs (namely, Cat E) that you can do as an additional duty. But why would you do that?

I think we're at 2 now?

Sounds like you bought a helicopter U174 cord. So yes, it's an impedance issue. Yours is high impedance (150 ohm); mine - and most military spec - is low impedance (5 ohm). I'll sell you just the cord (which includes the boom and mic) if you like. It's just 2 bolts to change it out. Or you can call Bose and order it.
