Well...sh*t. Thanks for the memo. So much for wanting to grow in the 130 community. -
2, besides, we can't really focus on our primary job since leadership will probably insert some other useless waste of time in place of all the flying hours just lost.

Dupe, on 09 March 2013 - 10:27 AM, said: We need and deserve a debate in this country that's more advanced than "Stop socialism!" As do we a better debate than the "tax the rich, we are the 99%."

We do this most of the time at Yokota anyways. And when we do have a dedicated pro line it usually consists of 6 copilots, 4 ACs or some similar combination playing musical chairs in the pattern. (All of this pre sequestration.)

Me too...good dude, don't know why he threw his life away!

Standard liberal tactics

Believe me, after 7 Yokota guys got UAVs for their second assignments in the past year, I would be thrilled with a J assignment.

Oh sorry didn't realize switching autopilot on and gazing through a hud was such a giant leap!

Forgive my ignorance...what does TFI mean for 130s?

Without getting into details for OPSEC reasons, expect to fly a lot, as in 10 days straight with a day break, rinse and repeat. Some of us are getting extended. Plenty of work to do out here. Squadron queep is kept at a minimum here at Kandyland. Just got a new CC and he is stellar. While the rest of the non flying parts of the base have their heads up their asses our squadron really has its' s*it together.

2...I also am getting my MBA from IU and I can't be happier. If you are military and have decent stats they give you a military scholarship; on top of TA the tuition comes to about 20k out of pocket, which student loans and the GI bill can help with. I know the AF does not care but I could care less as long as I am checking the box in their eyes. This degree is for that inevitable time in my life where I leave the AF, voluntarily or involuntarily and want something that will stand on its own two feet. Between flying and the MBA it is a lot of time spent, but I make it work and still have time for weekend drinking exploits.

That would be my squadron, I believe they confiscated the dildo bottle opener as well (which the group commander's wife used at the bar to open her hard cider and thought was hilarious.)

I'm still searching for a recording of that countdown

And now apparently a bunch of the hostages escaped.

This "president" has no credibility lecturing Americans to raise the debt ceiling.

I remember reading on this very site about someone flying him around Asia in a C-12 and how he and his staff were complete douches. He apparently showed up 5 hours late without telling the pilots while the pilots were waiting causing the pilots to go hungry.

He apologized for his anti-gay comment back in 1998, and several gay rights groups accepted his apology. The only person who didn't was Barney Frank (who cares what he thinks.)
-
His e signature was his only contribution to the fiscal cliff debate. He even sent Biden to do the negotiating while he was on vacation. I am still amazed that the man who lectures Americans on paying their fair share of taxes takes a tax payer funded vacation days before most Amercans would have seen one of the largest tax hikes in history. How people can define this as leadership is beyond me. And for the record, the same criticism extends to republican and democratic congressmen/senators.
-
Well most of the folks asking for lower taxes are also calling for reduced spending (I.e Paul Ryan, Rand Paul, etc.) The people asking for more government programs don't have a problem calling for higher taxes as long as it is on those who earn more than them. Indeed, after this election, I believe we are reaching an ideological rift in this country on which direction to go: European style massive government / high taxes , or, limited government with lower taxes. I sure hope we don't venture even further into the former.

Sad thing is, these CGOC types will get promoted and be the ones making the decisions we will be talking about on baseops.

MEO wears these patches ?

Aren't the planes owned by the museum and not the DOD and thus can tell the Air Force to pack sand if they ask them to remove the nose art?

Nah, but hey some rising general needs a new OPR bullet for preventing sexual assault.
