What's wrong with the Air Force?
Wouldn’t that just embolden the support function of the AF to support even less than they are now?

What's wrong with the Air Force?
It’s a testament to the few in staff that can get anything accomplished. Staff just seems to be unable to get out of its own way the vast majority of the time.

Should My Mentality Be Pilot Or Nothing?
Too true, but why do I keep having to do some shoe clerks job for them? If I do their work, can I at least get their pay as well?

Info on flight boots
I can envision the Chiefs chasing after you now

Green bag being phased out?
Just go find a McPeak era flight suit. All the pant pockets you can find for that pocket pool.

Eglin F-35 crash
I can almost hear the Generals claims of “But I told them to stop messing up!”

Snowbirds Crash
At what cost? You speak like there is unlimited budget and assets

Fingertip and Formation Landings
Lemme guess, you always go 2 circle with the tanker too

Commanders are dropping like flies this year
I’ve seen multiple instances where a wing king tried to fire some group commanders only to be told no by the numbered AF commander. The firings that I’ve seen kept quiet were due to infidelity (2 married squadron commanders).

Fingertip and Formation Landings
If it was a Flanker, would that have made it BFM? Why does the platform you are trying to get to the control zone of matter? Still need to know how to do that. And your expectations of IFF grads are WAY higher than mine.

Fingertip and Formation Landings
At that point it was BFM. If you are looking outside maneuvering in relation to another aircraft, I’d argue you are past the intercept. Besides, you just let Fat Amy carry you around.

UPT Next
Any in particular? For those of us with the popcorn can we expect something entertaining at least?
-
UPT Next
The AF thinking that far ahead to make the service better? Unlikely as some shoe will just say no because we’ve never done that before

Civilian jobs that work closely with the AF/squadrons?
Some contractor scheduling jobs out there. Not easy with a high learning curve, potentially long days, mistakes have big impacts, but that is the heart of the squadron if you want to be involved.

KC-46A Info
After seeing another program almost go that way...not shocked.

Handgrips - Raise Triggers - Squeeze ? How and why?

And what would your preference of CSAF be?

MALD or something similar is just a few nerds away from employing weapons

Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Wasn’t my point for you to get spun up about. Combo flew with the Thunderbirds where they get about 3-400 hrs a year. Think about the rest of her experience

Fighters vs Heavies. If you really want to get spun up, how much of her time was from the Thunderbirds?
-
KC46 winglets?
Unfortunately way too true
-
Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Aside from hooking up with the LPA while lying about it, security violations, a complete lack of tactical knowledge while holding SEFE quals, consistently ranting and screaming at people during her OG meetings. those were just the thing I can 100% confirm as her leadership protected her Combo is the CC the AF deserves at this point

She is a toxic train wreck.

AF Light Air Support Aircraft
It’s the best of what’s left in the Army. All that “school” makes them super smart as they would inform me of how air operations should work. And yes, I’ve had the opportunity to work at the Regiment/Brigade and Corps level.

Degradation of SUPT
This is also funny coming from someone who flies around the flagpole in Fat Amy. Similar logic says you can cut most of your hours too
