  1. Great event, after being stationed in the Las Vegas area the last 6 years I finally made it! I'll be back next year for sure. Huggy I was in box 105, what a great party.
  2. Sounds like the pilot got out safe http://www.cbs47.tv/...CWiGM_vGDA.cspx
  3. No shit flame out a couple weeks ago and while setting up for high key the approach controller asked me if I could level at 6000' for traffic. Ahh...negative.
  4. 2. Great shit, couldn't have a better OG/CC up at 'cuse. Truth, I'll admit I was at the bottom of my Corpus class, everyone had above average NSS's and I was the lowest and got the pred. Folks in classes before me had NSS scores in the 30s and received an airplane. Luck and timing. I ended up somewhere I never imagined also. I may not have been the best at UPT, but I know that I am competent and doing pretty well flying this platform. Plus I get to hang out at the Nellis Club, where the real learning takes place. Overall a decent first assignment.
  5. So who has a Utah goat tag for this season http://www.foxnews.com/us/2012/07/20/goat-man-spotted-in-utah-mountains/
  6. This was the latest UPT direct drop: 1 x B-1 / 1 x B-52 / 1 x C-5M / 7 x C-17 / 2 x C-130E/H / 3 x C-130J / 1 x KC-10 / 4 x KC-135 / 1 x E-3 / 1 x EC-130H / 1 x AC-130U / 1 x Do-328 / 1 x U-28

  8. No rules against Navs going to UAVs, they're always hiring.
  9. Looks like all the canucks made it out safe http://www.thestar.com/news/canada/article/1135032--fire-breaks-out-on-military-aircraft-all-nine-crew-evacuate-safely?bn=1
  10. Does anyone have experience with the Nike Special Field Boot? http://store.nike.com/us/en_us/?l=shop,pdp,ctr-inline/cid-1/pid-410059
  11. Wierd, check out the comments. http://gizmodo.com/5859081/why-is-china-building-these-gigantic-structures-in-the-middle-of-the-desert
  12. Of late many of the pred dudes that are going to holloman to do TX-2 are pred IPs and will be going back to Holloman to be an IP. 26th wps is also has a tx-2 course that has a handful betas in the class. I foresee the large majority of Reaper dudes coming out of Holloman to not be going to the forty-deuce, but more than likely going to ellsworth. Also, 'cuse will be a full-up FTU this winter. Ellsworth will be full up come spring. If you want to go reaper make it clear to your DO that you want to go fly the reaper in squadron X, and they will do their best to help you out, especially if it is just a PCA around creech. If you have yet to start any FTU talk to someone in leadership and tell them you want to fly the reaper at ellsworth, this way you may be able to jump on the reaper train before FTU with orders to go to ellsworth when you are done. PM me if you want more info.
  13. If your a T1 guy great drop, if your a T38 guy I hope you like Buffs.
  14. Who's next? http://www.foxnews.c...-awlaki-killed/
  15. So who wants to go fly the C-38? The C-38 Courier is a special mission Gulfstream 100 currently in use by the United States Air Force with the 201st Airlift Squadron at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. C-38 Guard
  16. WIHG - Walmart Is Hiring Greeters
  17. Like I said before the club is still standing, but I found out last night it will be under new ownership Monday.
  18. Truth, or she is the same chick from this story:
  19. The script at the front gate of Nellis, "home of the fighter pilot" has been taken down. WTF.
  20. Europin Tailor Located in Summerlin and they do good work. Had a buddy go here and he got a party shirt and lined his mess dress jacket. They thought he was crazy, but the final product looked really good. I am going tomorrow, to get a party shirt made.
  21. Brevity terms are not difficult to hear, not similar to words with different meanings, and they make sense to what they are referring to. I would stick to language differences in the aviation community.
