Changed the topic title to ease any KC-10 sphincters. ("tanker" vs "KC-135") Desperately trying to find info on the incident, as we have several crews there right now. I hate this part of aviation.

The only guy we have in the process right now was only given his AMS dates. NGB is waiting to dole out the other ones pending successful completion. FWIW.

45RS standard! Just don't forget to write the solutions down on a bar napkin or beer label. And then don't lose it.

That literally makes my stomach turn. Cold shivers. Damn. Dont' take it for granted fellas...this is a serious business. Keep your wits about you. Godspeed to the victims, families, and friends.

Umm...perhaps for you journalists. Most of us are pilots. Didn't you get the memo on that, Steve?

How do you graduate USAFA but fail out of IFS? Surely it isn't that difficult. WTF? The AF is overmanned with officers right now, thus no need to keep them around - especially when the AF can get reimbursed for their schooling. Doesn't seem like a wise long-term decision...but we all know how good the AF is at long range planning...

I went through the process with Bradley Morris several years ago and had positive results. I drove to one of their job fairs in Atlanta with my only expectation being to get practice interviewing. They set me up with 5 interviews that day and I ended up getting offers from 3 of them. Unfortunately, all of them would have required relocation which would have been a no-go with my ANG unit (and CINC-House) so had to decline the offers. Overall, I was pleased with their process, communication, and results.

Hey, I just found out about 69 seconds ago that there is actually an AFI covering this sort of shit. Guess I will have to stop discriminating now. ThreeHoler, that is a fantastic idea. Hopefully someone will listen.

Not in my neck of the woods. Haven't heard of it at any other unit either FWIW.

Despite the horrible crap going down...congrats on the race. Hope you got to finish at least. It's terrible that this senseless act ruined what was supposed to be such a good day for so many people.

Apologies if this one has made the rounds before...

They always do. They never do. SNAP standard these days.

I haven't heard of a current patient being shown the door, but have seen quite a few doctors and dentists that won't take new patients with TriCare. I've asked some of them about it, and the typical answer is because they don't pay as much and they are a pain to deal with. Shocking, I know.

Probably because they're the ones who stole the C-17 blueprints and sold them to the Chinese!

I am sure the Guard AGRs are lining up out the door for that opportunity.

Suggested response if you are ever in a similar situation "Man, bet you are happy that being gay is legal now!"

Jeff Gordon is sponsored by both Pepsi and GM. He drives a Chevy. I'm sure it was no accident he was driving a Camaro rather than a Mustang.

She's out of practice after hiatus.

That wouldn't shock me. Typical box-checker O-5 bullshit these days. Jesus man, take .69 seconds and use Google. The first hit will tell you.

FIFY

Left a comment for her...doubt it'll last: I'm nearly speechless. Honestly. It frightens me that people like this are actually in my service. FML.

Sounds about right. I was the form lead for a three ship and our jets were turned for a two ship later that day. While it seems like a colossal waste of money...it does prove the point that we are the only AF in the world that can pull stuff like this off (sts) and was actually good training.

It was rough flying tanker support out of the Med...
