I guess that was a better question-why doesn’t the syllabus allow it? You’re saying that subjective analysis will become objective if we just follows the syllabus. It makes sense within the Air Force’s self-imposed restrictions like MASS, etc. I’m saying they’d be PA’d if they’re meeting MIF early. You’re saying they may have had a Santa Claus or got lucky. But in your example of those end of block E’s, what if those came from Santas or they had temporary golden hands? How is that any different? A Sq/CC facing a CR? Use common sense. You sent him ahead, it didn’t work out, give him a few more rides. We’re wasting millions of dollars and plenty of human capital letting training timelines get behind. Why not get ahead where we can? In the few cases it doesn’t work out, use common sense.

Serious question. And why not? Is there a good reason not to, if a student is already meeting MIF? Sure, we all need air-under-our-ass time. Guard and Reserve slugs with a few thousand hours come to mind. If bases are behind the timeline, and we’re hurting for pilots, why not? Seems like a poor use of everyone’s time.

Can UPT/UPT Next/People who identify as "in pilot training" get proficiency advanced?

I guess the sarcasm didn’t carry through…I was thinking a great time at an SEC school versus some BX pogs or EagleCash at USAFA…

Can someone please shed light on what the improper benefits given out by USAFA would be?

12 hours toke to yoke. It’ll happen.

Fair, but that exactly my point. Everyone had to play the game to join the club or get that first promotion to second lieutenant. Why wouldn’t they keep it up to get the second, third, whatever promotion? These things start in the commissioning sources and UPT. “You don’t graduate UPT…your grade book does.” That’s not too different than having those slides greened up, is it?

It’s ironic how many times I’ve been told to just “play the game” by people who share your sentiment.

Wonder how long until they get lased or shot at in IMC.

Ever sped by a guy getting a speeding ticket?

I lose an IQ point every time I come here.

If you don’t speak Guard: ”We’re tryna get the whole gang some Garmin watches with innovation funds.” Let us know how it works out. Sounds like a legit plan!

This new TSP site is awful. I'm a knuckle-dragger, but I can only find basic account balances, not share price and shares. Anyone able to find a breakdown?

This mission should be a case study for any active duty commander who has OPCON over any Guard or Reserve crews.

Uh, yeah . . . sure do. Just poking the idea that if we don't do it the way we've always done it, it can't be done.

Who's going to teach anyone a fix-to-fix?! This isn't really surprising. The DoD contracts everything to civilians.

Great to see the Guard guys getting some love for kicking ass.

Helluva hat.

So you’re saying those of us who don’t agree with Scheller or don’t resign from the military will get a bullet to the head, like crown loyalists? Edit to add: What exactly do they have in store?

Attack the man instead of his message? While you call us p*ssies. Brilliant. You must be real fun to go on the road with. I went to public school but it seems his message was, “I’m gonna bring the whole f*cking system down.” So yeah, the ball’s in his court to really flush that plan out a little more.

Ok, so the other option was what… +200 dead over at the airport?

Shack. Very likely that “Scheller rambling in the abandoned bus” becomes synonymous with Washington crossing the Delaware.

There’s a red line that’s quickly approaching and it’s not going to be pretty. There’s a big can of kerosene labeled “careers & livelihoods” that the DoD is about to dump into this raging debate. Judging by the small sample size I’m exposed to…it’s gonna be a total sh*t show to actually implement.

If you’re talking ACSC DL, check the end of the instructions for the answer key. If I remember right, they said something like, “Since you read all the instructions, here’s the answers.”
