Is that the first Travis -46 drop?

If it's S1 for the Boom, the IB did all the refueling 🤣

I wonder what charge code the instructor used on his time card for the tag team?

https://taskandpurpose.com/news/air-force-71st-student-squadron-relieved/ Removed less than a month after taking over. That has to be some kind of record.

Israel bought the KC-46.

He was a lame Gucci boom, so he's looking for outies instead of innies.

Of course, it happens the week after I move from Denver 🤬

At least the KC-135 ANG crew that flew a whole sortie naked had a chick copilot.

Musk was able to derail several investigations into Tesla and SpaceX and his new payment platform for X. Musk got what he wanted. All the while DOGE was openly shuttering USAID, Musk was closing down or reducing regulatory agencies and things that would affect him and his companies. He was also able to harvest god knows how much personal data as well as the ability to install backdoors into any number of systems. Oh yeah, and White House communication is going through Starlink now. No way could be abused... He was able to accomplish exactly what he set out to do. https://www.wsj.com/politics/tech-silicon-valley-government-influence-70b43ca6?st=fDN1mW&reflink=mobilewebshare_permalink

So, he gets fired? Where are the criminal charges?

I remember reading Bob Gates “Duty” and him commenting how he had to cut his own grass and do his own errands as SECDEF while his CJCS, Admiral McMullen, had enlisted aides that did all that.

Most likely.

No one cares what the Senate thinks of the 14th Amendment since they aren't the official interpreters of the Constitution and applicable amendments. Sorta like how booms didn't give a shit what pilots thought of how to make contact or pilot's not giving a shit about what a boom thought of an approach and landing.

Can Supreme Court Justices not be fired via impeachment? Stan Eval is a commander's program, however, as a commander when you R&C an evaluator, you are giving trust and confidence in that evaluator to follow applicable associate directives and technical manuals. Aren't you a MC-130 guy? Let's see what the MC-130V2 says: Huh, weird it doesn't state "what the commander's directives are."

Do you argue with an evaluator who's giving you a check ride on how you don't agree with their interpretation of an area of checkride criteria? Who's charged with the final interpretation of said check ride criteria, you or the evaluator?

Selfridge is also getting the KC-46 to replace their KC-135s.

I posted a link to an EO and a quote from the EO. I didn't know that would trigger you.
