  1. No worse than that," McPeak" big Obama fan.
  2. I did the last 6 months of my career as a flight chief (day care), 2 of my Crew Chiefs were married to strippers er dancers, it was not a short 6 months.
  3. I see the whole thing lasting less than 6 months.
  4. Can clearly see the AR doors but no winglets
  5. I am guessing the FAA certification will be a way to simplify logistics, we can also buy parts from all the places the airlines do so we can get a break on pricing. Parts certified with a FAA/PMA sticker. I wonder also if the USAF will use contract mx A&P's instead of 18 year old airmen.
  6. We outspend them and build weapons that bankrupt them trying to counter them.
  7. Do you find it a little ironic that this TACP doesn't have a markmanship ribbon? I guess he lets his radio do the shooting.
  8. Probably not competitive for Senior or Chief because all he does is deploy and do his job and refuses to organize the Sq Xmas party, beside's that he has my respect and proud of this fellow MSgt. https://www.af.mil/News/ArticleDisplay/tabid/223/Article/554378/tacp-receives-second-silver-star-medal.aspx?source=GovD
  9. Porn More Porn cuz somebody stole my 1st DVD Morn Porn cuz somebody stole my 2nd DVD.
  10. Gone from leadership to fortune 500 management, Airman screws up once and it shows up on a Wing PPT slide she gets the big blue weenie even though she is one of your top performers. Glad I'm retired, in the 80's the CC took care of you if made him money on the flightline, the working troops were the ones you wanted to be and they were the ones to get promoted to Senior and Chief, today those guys don't make it past Tech. CC's Might as well take their uniform off and wear a polo and slacks and tell you lies just like their civilian counter parts in the airlines.
  11. Does any body know if that was a QF-16A if it was out of Tyndall, they have stocking up on them after the QF-4E's were depleted? As to retired guys flying military acft you might have a point but who has the experience to pass down to young Capt's. If you ever go to a depot and pick up your jet the guy launching you out in the postdock area has probably been working your MDS probably before you were born.
  12. Space is an unforgiving business. Even with the most stringent safety measures its still a 50/50 role of the dice.
  13. I only got two things to say. "Damn" and "you lucky bastard".

    Still driving a 92 F-150 4X4 with a 5.8l with 219K and everything still works except me.

  16. Your correct, we just make sure it happens.
  17. Tell a MSgt Production Superintendent how to fix your jet, we love that, we appreciate the advice, really we do.
  18. Well Gen Eisenhower did not have a overwhelming resume before he came Supreme Allied CC, as compared to a Patton or Bradley but he did have the tools as a staff officer of what it took to cross the channel. If your always at the tip of the spear and looking forward to the enemy you have no idea whats behind you to keep and get you there. During my time we had 2 fighter pilots in positions that still are fucking up the USAF, McPeak and Foglesong, I never want to see those two in charge of anything again. LR does not have much of a operational resume but she does know how to be a commander at different levels more than the current AFMCCC. If she is unsure of aerial combat she has a husband who can easily inform her.
  19. I am a 30 year plus A&P, what I tried to instill into my young troops before I crossed into the blue id world was try not to be a glorified gas station attendant, you can train a monkey to refuel and lox airplanes. I had the pleasure to work with some old school F.E's who started on recips who knew their shit and made your job easier when it came to actually debriefing troubleshooting and repairing. I think its a generational thing, my childhood was working on cars, building go carts from a lawn mower engine and actually taking shop classes in high school. I have a 17 year old son who is scared to death to learn how to drive.
  20. The one in front is a total write off. They could probably salvage pieces of them as plugs for others.
  21. She looks great in a skirt and heals, her husband was an eagle driver.
  22. Like the way they painted even the AIM 9's euro1.
  23. Tried to become a FE four times from the Crew Chief world but always got denied for some reason or another. For those who are successful please try the mx world first, in the early 90's we had a group on E-3 FE's who came from non mx backgrounds and did not have the common sense on how things on acft worked. They became very defensive when trying to do a MX debrief. If your working in services or MPF and can't tell the difference between a T-6 and a C-5 please stay where you are at.
  24. 707/135 aircraft have only so much room on the inboard pylon before they are scraping the tarmac, found many scrape on the inbd engines after a not so smooth landing.
  25. Found this interesting read. https://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/the-f-16-gun-pod-that-tried-to-shoot-down-the-a-10-wart-1597577525
