    There's the 152 AOG in New York AOC-wise, unsure hiring status. Edit: apparently they support USAFE...didn't realize that. Sounds terrible.

    How can you show career progression when you go straight to the MoH so early?

    Most of the "CAS" you're talking about in Afghanistan isn't CAS, it's dynamic targeting using CAS procedures. The two should not be confused, but they have been. We have a CAS JP, we have DT MTTPs, and they should be used for their appropriate applications. And satellite time is expensive. Very.

    But isn't that the current evolution? Aerodynamics are largely the same, and sure there are advancements to be made, but computational advancements can be much more quickly and cheaply upgraded than physical ones.

    If you want the block 60, you have to factor in that they own the rights to that config and we'd probably have to pay a licensing fee to buy it, or develop your own equivalent.

    What is a war these days anyway?

    I'm pretty sure some of the instructors can't apply the rubric.

    Wait, we fly airplanes?

    I'm no expert, so I should probably stop now, but it seems in the radar sensor game dish size matters sts, and the bombardier looks to have a smaller canoe. Maybe scientists got clever, and it works just as well so this is a great idea.

    Twisted grading rubric combined with instructors that can't apply critical thinking and/or instructors that have shitty writing skills and therefore cannot evaluate writing. Only the best of the best have the option to come back as instructors.

    Not functional last 16-19 hours.

    Is your argument that Surface to Surface missiles are keeping aircraft from flying into a ring 500nm from China?

    Here's an alleged hacker's take on the airplane thing... and he was crazy enough to tweet about. http://money.cnn.com/2015/04/17/technology/security/fbi-plane-hack/index.html Edit:

    Adapted Text in WSJ: The Meaning of Their Service A retired four-star Marine Corps general on the clarifying effect of combat experience, the poison of cynicism and how veterans can help revive American optimism.

    Haha, yeah. Apache, Black Hawk, Lakota, Kiowa, Chinook, Iroquois... oh, every Army helo? Edit: juuuuust a bit late

    But I can still only have 50MB of emails, a la 1995 Yahoo!?

    http://www.military1.com/army/article/461498-general-mattis-next-mission-destroying-the-ptsd-victim-myth Don't suppose anyone saw this talk live? Paraphrase from the article, but Mattis thinks that the exhalation of victim status is not helping our people. He strongly encourages those who have seen combat to not let anyone label them broken, but to leverage the PTS as an opportunity for post traumatic growth.

    If that's the concern, I hope they're concerned said individual is insane first.

    Does the songbook not get double jeopardy protection?

    I think the least they could do is have a system that takes your number to call you back when there's a wait, because "5 minutes" is always 50+ minutes. It would save a lot of people having to wait on hold for indeterminate amounts of time.
