  1. Don’t worry. There’s not a morale or retention problem in any way, shape, or form in the Air Force.
  2. There’s also plenty of new 2.1 type equipment out there. With enough research you can pretty much do whatever you want.
  3. You could AFWERX the shit out if this idea with how many man-hours it would save. Whatever knock off of shark tank we’re into this week. “Save $6.9B a year” “How difficult is the technical development.” “There is none, we just simply do it.”
  4. You would be living with covid whether people “did things to mitigate it” or not. Do you not understand this disease? It’s not polio, it’s like the flu. It will mutate and it will be around and it will keep killing people because the vaccines for it aren’t like MMR or Polio or name your static virus you won’t get with a proper vaccination. Quit being so thick with your religion of covid vaccination.
  5. Yes. Time to move on, sorry you were misled.
  6. No, these vaccines simply aren’t the silver bullet you were led to believe. In the President’s own words from the other day, over 200M are “fully vaccinated” and we have the same case loads and deaths we did a year ago when he claimed he had a plan to stop COVID. It’s all just hollow promises, and it’s unfortunate for everyone.
  7. Our chem trails program on Mars is severely behind, have to catch up with these balloon type sprayers. But it’s fun to consider the possibilities.
  8. Well that “generational wealth” is something they’re against so it makes sense, but they do characterize it as something only Peter Thiel types use… when it’s far more common as you said.
  9. Fify, and they’re already on top of it sts Avoid, suppress, kill the voucher
  10. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while.
  11. They probably need a provision that adds a lap after the SC, but with limited fuel could cause an issue.
  12. Yeah, they are taking issue with only letting the five between VER and HAM through (which, let’s be honest, are the only ones that mattered) because if they do that they should let all lapped cars past.
  13. Oh definitely. He’s on the record as claiming that the greatest tragedy of the 20th century was the breakup of the Soviet Union. Ukraine was “gifted” Crimea…so he took it back. [it’s a gift , Todd] He 100% still views Russian greatness as a return to the Soviet era poise, and in that world view, Ukraine is just a Russian extension.
  14. Somehow they’ll cover Latifi in detail and barely cover the real story for that week…jk yeah that should be good.
  15. Getting into the landing configuration is typically a bit of a disturbance for the students as the aerodynamics change and they get back to position and then, the airplane does behave more mushy once configured for landing. Throw in a big power change for something like a go-around, and sometimes there are deviations. What makes it potentially more dangerous in the T-38 is that in addition to the ground proximity you mentioned the rudder gives you full authority in landing configuration, and that can go south very quickly. One or two considerations.
  16. ^also in the holds a grudge when someone separates after their ADSC camp instead of staying beholden to the needs of the Air Force forever
  17. Once the government starts footing the bill, gotta keep the gravy train rolling. Every time the quarterly reports are about to hit investors, have a press conference recommending more boosters.
  18. To NATO is to water down and encumber with needless bureaucratic indecision in such a way as to paralyze any meaningful progress or action.
  19. Well hell, that won’t sell ads and generate clicks.
  20. If you’re in a position to retire, get apps in and at worst you can do a get-current stint at the regionals.
  21. You have a maximum of six months
  22. Skillsbridge was too good, probably the best transition program the DoD has ever had. So, logically, they had to hamstring it. For retention.
