  1. ISU-80/90s are not able to be loaded on a MRTT due to their height (taller than the cargo holds). Pallets compatibility is important due to AE’s using PSPs that are the same dimensions of a 463L pallet.
  2. Six. However, the -135 wasn't designed to carry pallets, which is why the pallet cargo load was designed decades later. The MRTT also can't carry ISU-80/90 due to height restrictions of the forward and aft cargo hold. The KC-46 can carry 18 pallets in a side-by-side configuration, can carry ISU-80/90s, and also has worldwide parts support and three allied users currently have or are in the process of receiving their jets.
  3. Still doesn’t carry more than eight 463L pallets.
  4. At that point, just start making KC-135s again.

  8. Here in Utah, Governor Cox reminded the media that Utah has the death penalty. I wouldn't be surprised if the suspect is caught, both the state and the feds charge a capital case.
  9. Charlie Kirk was just shot at a rally at Utah Valley University.
  10. Am I insinuating that specifically, Saban, though he denied it, was paying dudes under the table? Uh, yeah, per some former players.
  11. Saban retired because schools can now openly pay players via NIL and the portal allows in essence free agency. The entire SEC won’t be as dominate as it once was due to this.
  12. Looks like he's wearing that championship ring well.
  13. This. He still had a 108 rating in that game.
  14. I have nothing to add other than I toured the F-35 production line in Fort Worth a few weeks ago, and it's pretty cool.
  15. Ole Doc is getting ready to come out of retirement.
  16. The VA’s VR&E (Chapter 31) will also pay for pilot license and ratings. It’s a better deal than the Post 9/11.
  17. Buddy of mine was one of the last KC-135 Navs and was instructing at the WPS as a patch who he went to UPT as a Maj. He’s currently flying Raptors. YMMV.
  18. He didn’t have an ADSC for the LIQ training?
  19. Jesus, how many AFSC’s you have?
  20. Court-martial appeal summary for Maj Gen Cooley. https://afcca.law.af.mil/afcca_opinions/cp/cooley_-_40376_u_2405772.pdf
