AF Light Air Support Aircraft
You are surprised by this from a service that does so well at managing its pilot force?
-
Track Selects and Assignment Nights
You mean like their annual “Spring Cleaning”?

Degradation of SUPT
Ah yes, the new Air Force motto... “Aim Low” so every good deal is a gift and things will be pretty darn good

ADS-B
The next fun is going to be figuring out airspace when combat aircraft are operating in a MOA and The weekend warrior wants to save fuel by cutting through said MOA. The outcry will be entertaining

And there it is, crisis solved

Degradation of SUPT
Having discussed this with the Generals over various AFSCs, I consistently heard “I never said to lower the standard!” Maybe they were lying to me, maybe they were lying to themselves to feel better about the future losses, either way I’m guessing they believe you will accept all the risk.

Neck and Back Injury
There are actually a bunch of exercises to help build the supporting muscles of the neck. Most of them you can find on the interwebs

Neck and Back Injury
That’s why there were tears Side note, it took me 4 different PTs, but finally found one that actually helped. Big believer now, but it’s only to get me to what will probably require an MRI and surgery

Commanders are dropping like flies this year
Yes. Ive seen a dude get pulled over and given a DUI for a 0.08 blown in a 0.08 allowed state. Upper management immediately gave this guy an Art 15. The DUI was thrown out in court. However, the Art 15 remained and he was separated during the great purge. Thats pretty darn good management right there

Maximum waist measurement for females is 35.5 inches. Maybe she has the 35.5 Bravo like the Guard has. Not shaming cause I really don’t care, just wanted panchbarnes to remain in his/her/them/em/per/ver/xem/hir/(f)aer’s safespace.

Degradation of SUPT

Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
People can’t leave if you never made them in the first place. Besides, my guess is lower level Bob’s are feeding upper level Bob’s some BS

WTF Happened To Helmet Art?
That’s when you laugh and point

WTF Happened To Helmet Art?
Do you think the Bobs care about that? There is probably an E-9/O-6 that is about to lose it because it’s not fair or professional

WTF Happened To Helmet Art?
The fun police killed that years ago. I’m surprised the helo dudes have been getting away with it.

Probably the people who wear G-suits for a living. If you have issues dropping your sleeves on the Cadillac floors, that’s on you
