No bubble. Prices are stable with 6-9% growth per year. This is mostly due to a influx of business with large growth in data storage/processing, engineering firms, transportation, and of course entertainment. Buy.

Stabilized. I'd buy. Rents are high due to everyone having a credit score of 169 and unable to get a loan. Rent that b-tch when you leave and build equity.

Those work well for smaller logs.

Copy all on both your points; EGUN crews are plenty busy--perhaps at a rate greater than AMC crews. This would illustrate my point, though: if AMC owned the crews at EGUN as well as those stateside, I'd say it would be more likely the pain--writ large, in terms of TDY/deployment rates and locations--would be equitably distributed. Sounds like EUCOM and AMC are at least attempting to share the load, hence ARC & AD crews augmenting, but the coord isn't working all that great if the workload is still unfair. If you're going to operate a tanker off-station anyway (Istres, perhaps), an AMC crew/jet can do that mission just as easily as an EGUN one. Here's to hoping the two commands can work and play well together, and maximize quality of life for crews stateside and overseas. In an attempt to keep this thread on topic, the high opstempo and crappy deals would do much to explain how/why the ACP take rate is so low thus far. Desert rotations, homeland defense alerts and a-word hiring aren't likely to substantially change in the near future. I don't suspect take rates will substantially change, either. TT

That is the most unbelievable thing I've ever read. Almost like saying you made it through Captain Skyhawk without hitting a mountain on those fast levels.

In addition, the F-35 is still in the middle of a planned, *iterative* development programme, which is something that the detractors of the F-35 never mention. If you applied the same level of criticism to the F-15 at the time it entered service as the media and bloggers do to the F-35, you'd have had to have gotten all hysterical about how the APG-63 didn't work very well and how the Air Force had pushed it into service without any self-protection capability. And yet the F-15 went on to get 105 kills for zero losses (and counting). I think it's fair enough to lambast the acquisition element of the programme, but it's tiring reading self-professed experts take the F-35 apart without talking about Blocks and tapes, and without acknowledging that the aircraft is still in development.
