JSTARS sabotage?

Brain fart. I know the difference. I seem to remember hearing stories about AWACS girls at PSAB running a prostitution ring back in the day...clearly my mind was off somewhere other than thinking about JSTARS backenders.

Absolutely true. According to a Flight Engineer I knew who had been around for a while, OSI busted the prostitution ring after the AAFES shopette reported an unusually high number of female enlisted aircrew cashing an unusually high number of personal checks.

What kind of dipshit pays a whore by check?!?

What?! This was when?! I spent (did) time at PSAB and heard nothing of this. Swing shift MX guys getting the short end of the stick (STS) again. Damn it. And another group of hard working entrapenures put out of business by overburdening government regulations. What's wrong with this country?

EDIT: Because I still can't spell.

FWIW I heard the exact same story at AUAB in early 2003 in the run-up for Shock-N-Awe. Likely an urban legend either way.

Like the one about the chick at AUAB going to her Shirt because the John's check bounced? Something like that.

No ATM at PSAB. The legend that I recall was the high amount of condom grabs at the flight docs office and the high number of the same dollar amount checks cashed by the valued customers.

"Wow, the line is out the door at finance and everyone cashed a $50 check. Weird."

You never, ever go ATM.

Urrban Legend. I know the supposed members of the ring, and they're both still on AD, and will both probably make O-6. There was a Local National who just knew since there were women, they had to be prostitutes.

Pictures or it didn't happen.

Same story when we (AWACS) were at Elf One at Rihayd in the early 80's during the Iran/Iraq war. It said it was a enlisted AGE chick who got caught when a officer found out that enlisted paid a lower price than the officers and blew the whistle. We got good per diem then and were paid in cash.

So she pro-rated the cost; just like getting per diem, BAH or other entitlements. Sounds like she had a handle on her customer base (STS) and adjusted the price margin to the going market. I guess she passed her CLEP exam for economics. (CLAP exam is a whole nother' story)

Must have been interesting conversation rating that girl out...

"So, Lt Snuffy, exactly how do you know that A1C Yummypants is charging more for O's than E's?"

"Well sir, ahh ummm..."

What was the topic of this thread again?

We were discussing the difference between the JSTARS and AWACS.

Basically, one has a cool spiny thing on top, and other has a big adam's apple. Oh, and AWACS co-pilots are spitters!

Title changed.

To the OP:

AWACS, aka E-3

JSTARS, aka E-8

Might want to learn the difference

I had a momentary loss of SA while looking at midget porn. I got distracted and posted a link about JSTARS sabotage and called it an AWACS. /shrug... They're both white 707 airframes that cause their male aircrew to only generate female offspring. Both have the "E" model turbofans too, IIRC.

So where in the FSS do you work that basic vis recce escapes you?
