So -1 change FCIF is in order?

Because it worked for them

You should give that speech to FSS too

That almost seems to be a question of “officially”, or “un-officially”. Holloman is “un-officially” manned primarily by people who cannot say no

Is it E-9 or E-10?

Didn’t you hear that the AF has improved the assignment system and that it is looking out for you so that you can have a meaningful life?

I guess we will see if VR will be the gateway to future wings when these students go to Kelly for the FTU. Right now, as mentioned before, the UPT product is definitely inferior to what it was just 4 years ago. Students are having a difficult time with the admin and Gs. Too much CrossFit and not enough beer and bacon is my guess for the G issues

Koscheski is a political General, thus the non answer that doesn’t even relate to reality. The better Q&A AIRMAN MAGAZINE: What would you tell pilots who may be thinking of leaving the Air Force? BRIG. GEN. KOSCHESKI: I think the Air Force gives Airmen a chance to live a meaningful life and you get to see tangible results of the work you do. It’s important. It matters. You don’t wake up in the Air Force and go to work and go, “I wonder if what I do today, if it matters or not?” In terms of quality of service, quality of life, I think we’ve also got a lot to offer, and folks see that and I also think pilots have seen the efforts that we’ve taken through retention, especially to try to improve things. We reduced some deployments, and we’re improving assignment processes. We’re trying to give stability to families, and they see that, and we have a lot of good faith going on right now across the force of people wanting to hang in there and stay Air Force, so they can live a life that matters, and they see that we’re trying to take care of them and make things better for them. Did you guys hear that? Big Blue will take care of you!

And that right there is why this plan will fail

How comforting [sic]

It’s like PCS’s or deployments, you are probably the first from that base. So you will have to bear with them as they figure it out

That is what the CV community briefed ACTF. With metrics!

According to the CV guys, they wanted to prioritize students this way: T-38 TH-1 T-1 The ACTF wants to do the reverse.

Pointy-nosed generals? Those are politicians first. Just like the heavy generals. And aren’t those heavy generals just doing amazing work with the MAF?

The only way to do that is to punish the stupid

The ARC can’t even get guys to fly blue air as a GS-13. How will you find all these pilots to fly red? Also, the T-X needs a radar, jammers, etc to be adequate.

Been there, done that and will never go back to Cannon. Was TDY/deployed half the time and still managed to put 20,000 miles on my car. And when the wind were from the east, the strong aroma of cows was ever present in the vault. Is there still a war zone south of 9th? And do they still have 10% of the town as registered gang members?

Two questions would be did they fly -38s in UPT a d how old are they. Plus they’d have to pass the bro check

Continuing as a LtCol past 20 years in AD? Pass. The QoL increase as an AD quitter has far exceeded the bonus. We all make choices, and mine was the Guard.

How is it smart to put a bunch of UPT Next kids into Blk 30’s. They really need to be put into something with AGCAS. I’d prefer not to see more iron left in the desert.

i wonder how many times Norty will say “All in” or “Double down” in his book.

Like no one saw that a decade ago. Maybe the warning just got lost with the whole retention problem message

Oh good. Just more things the FTU has to teach. What could go wrong?
