  1. So if you retired right at 15 years (180 months), then you'd get 35% pay? Doesn't sound altogether like a bad deal, especially if the healthcare is unchanged. You can get out at ~37 instead of ~42, and might be more marketable. And for those going to the airlines, that's 5 more years of seniority.
  2. Literature? No, but I'm a Whiting IP and we've had multiple NFOs come through as students in the last year.
  3. You can go NFO to pilot.
  4. So if she outweighs you by 200 and is a foot taller, it's cool? Sounds legit. https://www.heatherhaven.com/welcome.htm
  5. Hosed? Not so much. The courts don't even consistently prosecute MOH phoneys. They're just gonna laugh this one out the door.
  6. Yes and no. They're loggable because you can put whatever you want in your logbook. I would put them in mine. However, they're only usable towards a private certificate if you have all the right endorsements/signatures from the CFI that gave you the training. Since you don't have that, you're kinda SOL as I doubt they're gonna do the legwork for you to get that.
  7. Can't say I'm shocked. We'd get more use out of a light attack aircraft than we ever will get out of the -22 or-35, but the program will never see the light of day as long as Congress doesn't see the benefit. https://www.avweb.com...tml?CMP=OTC-RSS
  8. Big Blue could definitely learn a thing or two from the Navy about VFR ops. They might even start stocking these crazy things called "sectionals" in the pubs room.
  9. Officer notified of results: Nov 11 Date of Separation: 1 Feb 12
  10. So they could just give up, or... they could live in Gulf Breeze and each drive a little bit, even if it is early. That's probably a better option than telling the guy to live WEST of the base. Just sayin.
  11. Oh we'll make the timeline, even if we have to fly every weekend to do it.
  12. Yes.
  13. Ironically, from a post by Mr. Lumbergh.
  14. You're mom failed 1st grade spelling. No, really. She did.
  15. The reverse flow design certainly helps.
  16. BGE.
  17. IIRC, that was applicable to Reserves. Guard is a different system.
  18. Don't know any details. Nose gear collapsed, ended up in the grass.
  19. Yep. I wasn't in that unit or anything, just thought it'd make a good avatar. Little Rock has had a few planes pushed around over the years, too. Here's higher res and a different angle. I hope the sheetmetal shop got a bonus after cleaning up that mess. edit: I hadn't seen this one before. You can see part of it on the left edge of the pic above.
  20. Don't be so hard on the kid. Everyone knows that my ability to buy an AR-15 in San Antonio is to blame for Mexican criminal gang activity.
  21. I vote no. I don't have a clue about your promotion chances, but I don't think anyone is going to knock you for choosing your family over your career, especially an unpredictable career at that.
  22. Sounds like you've got some insight into their brains that you need to share with the rest of us.
  23. Hey Rainman... I know how you feel about talking to the media. Is it ok if we pose for the Chinese?
  24. The line between cynic and realist is so very fine, isn't it?
