  3. Why would the media TELL a story when it's so much more profitable to SELL a story? #ferguson Edited to add: The way this journalist very tactically told the Krusinski story casts some doubt on the rest of his writing. He definitely left out some key facts to improve his argument and I have to assume that's his MO.

    NYT reports policy shift extending combat ops.
  5. Interesting conversation. Recommend thread split. Sometimes our SA bubbles shrink; that's when TCAS is really nice.

    Anyone have the contact info for doing a Luminox Custom Squadron buy? Just want something simple like a patch on the dial on a reasonably priced watch, and I've seen luminox's like that before.

    Funny you use the word wisdom here. Depending on what you're struggling with in T6's it may actually be wise to request a T-1. I'm not saying that one is better or more difficult than the other. Some people just do much better with a crew to lead and to support them. Also, there are many important missions for AF pilots that don't require 90 degrees of bank in fingertip. I've personally known a number of people that probably shouldn't have gotten a T-38, went anyway, and ended up without wings due to T-38 specific struggles. I'm not saying they would have gotten through the T-1 syllabus, but they never got a second chance to find out.
  8. More firings making headlines.
  9. That post really tied the room together.
  10. Here is eight years of historical data.

    Here's what my google-fu uncovered for those wanting to do Breitling orders.
  12. Low Altitude Tactical Navigation - AFI 11-214
  13. Retiring after "two decades of weary service." Again, congrats on the retirement.
  14. Reading this reminds me of one of my kids' favorite shows.
  15. Your writing style, word choice, and argument structure are nearly identical to a previous poster on this forum, PYB/CannonCrashPad. I don't know if you're the same guy with just another new account (if so, congrats on your upcoming retirement) or if you're just trolling. Either way, circular and strawman arguments end up falling flat when mixed with such vitriol. I don't really get your objective here, but it seems much more about tearing down than trying to help.
  16. Air Force C-40 lands in Pyongyang to pick up prisoner. Link
  17. The wings still look like they're in excellent condition. I'm sure they'll have the plane rebuilt and flying within the next couple years.

    It's a disease that makes you sweat, bleed, cough, and vomit. It's spread through sweat, blood, saliva, mucous, and vomit, even hours after those "bodily fluids" are deposited on doorknobs, keyboards, etc... It's concerning enough that we have a new czar. I don't think it's doomsday preppers bad, but also not something to just blow off.
  19. Deny. Deny. Distract. Counter accuse. Blame the victim. Claim that "it would be unrealistic to expect perfection." https://www.airforcetimes.com/article/20141016/BENEFITS06/310160063/Air-Force-Unrealistic-expect-perfection-force-management-programs

    Love how they designed the gun into the watch movement itself. Very nice work.
