It's hard to write a statement as short as this but which contains as much truth as it does...

Did he like strawberry gum?

Weren't you saying this 2 years ago? 🙂

By "struggling" do you mean by not having big double-digit wins against ranked opponents like Oregon, Oregon State, and Utah? I guess? They beat ranked opponents Oregon twice, USC, Utah, and Oregon State. Florida State dominated LSU, beat Louisville by nine points, and beat Clemson, the only ranked opponents they've played. Florida State's strength of schedule is 55th while Washington's is 11th and Alabama's 5th. Florida State almost blew a 21-point lead on Boston College, needed overtime against Clemson, and trailed at home in the second half to Duke before Riley Leonard exited with an injury. Texas also beat Alabama. Alabama beat the reigning two-year champion, Georgia. Ultimately, the committee wasn't going to let Alabama, who just beat the #1 team in the SEC Championship, or an undefeated Washington team who beat a Top 10 Oregon twice to include the PAC-10 Championship, sit at home and give it to an ACC team who played weaker opponents. Why? Too much money left on the table and the people didn't want to see an FSU team just boat-raced by a stronger SEC, Big 12, PAC-10, or Big 10 team.,

I can do it but only while flying single pilot. Lol. They didn't or I would have crashed on day one. I could barely pickup without going into dynamic rollover but I could fly the shit out of it straight and level lol. "What do you mean I have to increase power to land?" - Lt Biff Edit: The way I look at fixed wing prior to UPT H is similar to the Marines and the everyone is a grunt first. Every USAF pilot should have a little fixed wing experience.

Crazy to apply? No. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. Crazy to think you have a good shot at getting hired? Yes. You had your shot, gave it up [a lot here depends on the long story and how everything was left with the unit], and are now applying against qualified 11Fs, etc. There are qualified 11Fs who leave the jet who fighter units don't rehire, let alone a non-11F type. 11M -> 11F flow is super rare, but has been done (usually bizarre luck / timing in my experience). Now, if you truly just miss the unit, I bet there are ways to work a non-flying job with them (again, depending on the circumstances of how you left).

Oh right because the support services on base are supportive of Aircrew schedules! Can’t count the number of times I’ve landed in RODN for example late in the evening only for every eating establishment to include the shoppete to be closed; or better yet, deployed ops, land and chow hall is closed. Heck I’ve had to haggle with AMOPS to keep the runways open for our HHQ missions. It’s an Air Force run by nonners for nonners.

Never take a single day for granted. Losing someone unexpectedly is the worst thing a family could suffer from. Godspeed to the crew! We'll see each other again!

Because there's times you alert at 0400 to show at 0500 then fly a 17 hour day (fragged for 10) due to various delays, and the entire crew could really use a beer after that.

Let me educate you with one of my favorite documentaries so you don’t keep embarrassing yourself.

No shit, there I was…downtown San Salvador, May 2023…three-ship of Salvadoran A-37s flying through the sunset. It was righteous.
