It's hard not to form opinions regarding behavior. What is a rational person to think when classified information is found on a home brew server and nothing comes of it? Was that server subpoenaed and searched by the FBI? No. Did the FBI conduct a dawn no-knock raid of the home to search for documents/computers/etc. that contained classified information? No. Did legal advisors, also under investigation, to the person who concocted the home brew server have their home(s) raided and searched? No. Those persons were also given legal immunity. Did the FBI record any interviews with the people connected with the improper handling of classified information? No. Again, the legal counsel that was under investigation that was given legal immunity also served as legal counsel to another person under investigation. Were any indictments brought about after requested phones and computers were destroyed by those that were under investigation? No. Lastly, does the legal statute governing the prosecution for improper handling of classified information contain the word "intent" anywhere within it? No. A common thread through this process and the lack of prosecutorial interest happens to be a couple of names who happen to be investigators with the power to drive the scope and direction of the investigation. I'm sure that it's just coincidence. If you have any doubt of this, I would suggest you duplicate the home brew server in your house and store some classified information on it. Tip off the FBI and let us know how that works out.

I’ve told him to his face why at one of his “CGO round tables” on why pilots are leaving. It’s time he starts firing some wing commanders who are still propelling the queep monster while their pilot exec minions’ 90 day time is in the low tens.

Ironic reply, since your “counter argument” to TK’s very detailed post was simply to call POTUS a moron. Disagree as much as you please, but calling POTUS a “fucking moron” is unsat behavior. More info available here. cheers

No idea. They have about 40 hours on them and I needed a TSOd set for my airline job, so I got A20s 4 years ago when I started in the airlines. I like the A20s more than the Zulu 2s, but I know some like Zulu 2s (or others) better. Depends on nugget shape.

For your PPL BUY a good mid-priced headset. One that is yours, not some schoolhouse communal headset some other dudes been sweating all over the ear seals and lipping up the boom mike. Ugh. Used communal headsets for 20+ years as a flightline maintainer not exactly hygienic. Once in Mother Blue's employ you'll get issued a nice shiny new one that's compatible with military radios (single plug, civilian headsets have a dual) For PPL flying I've had the same DC 10--30 headset for about 10 years, may not be the most comfortable headset in the world but it works great. Went with the DC because they also made/make the headsets we used on the flightline and we abused the crap out of those things and they kept on going and easy to repair when required. Your mileage may vary, but whatever you do get your own friggin headset it's worth the piece of mind and hygiene.

Buy a used pair of A20s, then sell it if/when you’re done using it for about what you paid for it. Or buy my pair of lightspeed Zulu 2s that I haven’t used in a few years.

You mean besides an aging fleet and all your experience sprinting to the door when their ADSC is up?

HIANG notifications started to go out yesterday!

Ironically your comment about the 50th State started the 50th page of this thread. Touchè

Duck, I think they are trying to figure out what to do with you.
