This. Compare stories about the two and realize exactly why Yeager has the reputation that he does. No matter what you do in an airplane, your job as a fighter pilot is to be a good dude to the bros around you. No amount of aviation accomplishment entitles a man to act like a douche.

You used one. Her face. Anyone not catching that...fail

TCAS is 1 installed - 1 required in the sandy location where I fly.

First off, this is an ACSC paper. C'mon, how often do those get any traction? Second, agree with Brother Brabus-Johnson: you'll get your AR intro in the B-course (MQT often enough). You won't remember what the big deal was two weeks into your first deployment. Two months into said deployment, you'll stay on the boom while using a piddle-pack. In the last month of the deployment, you'll see which booms catch that you're giving the ops desk dsn every time they ask for your tail number.

Actually, I should fix this to say "member of the human race"

KDLF might as well be a Fighter Training Wing.

Uhhhhhhhhhhhh, this is a joke isn't it? If not....damn.

That's interesting, because there are a lot of aviators who have no respect for a guy who is a self-important windbag who once accomplished some amazing acts of airmanship but unfortunately eclipsed all of that with his enormous ego.

...which is why I'm guessing you're not an accident investigator.

Uh, Nagasaki is nowhere near the area hit by the earthquake and tsunami and was not damaged...

You can toss the "Technical Expert" term Old Man, shoulda/coulda/woulda been a Warrant. Flyers get pissy with queep shit done or said by Shoes, but will rarely do or act against a disrespectful Enlisted person for fear of getting talked to by a higher ranking Shoe O. I expect Officers period to act like Officers and lead. Confused? Go talk to the USMC, their O's seem understand that ideology, even their flyers. NCO's have better things to do (I.e. making the military run) instead of making uniform corrections you're too to make yourself.

fail x2. it's in the link Clearedhot posted that's labelled "Fail"... I will however agree with the intent of your post. Whether or not it's the same arch, WTF? That's still impressive.
