  1. That checks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pXh8Ena6aE
  2. Any changes WRT living arrangements and the housing market or is the gouge above still good? Anything you would have done differently during your time at KCHS?
  3. Any updates on -17 manning, flying hours for new guys, AMC/PACAF gripes, etc? If you were a young, single type hoping to go 17s in the next month or two, which base would be at the top of your list?
  4. Kittinger jumped from 103k in 1960. It's a record that hasn't been touched since.
  5. Any chance there'll be a U-2 rep at the KCBM career day festivities on 10 March?
  6. You're no fun.
  7. Wait, what are the other reasons?
  8. Good luck getting your hands on current gouge.
  9. I think the jury's still out on whether it's a gag or for real. A buddy of mine who's currently stationed at the same UPT base as Lt. Raptor says that "he really is like the bio..." I'll refrain from posting additional pics for the moment since I try not to be that much of a dick to former classmates. Besides, as we all know, the only pictures that get posted on this forum are ones with less dumbass and more tetons.
  10. Maybe, but you've got to give the kid credit for making some solid throws. This article's pretty relevant: link.
  11. Take a look at the KC-46A development link in the quoted text that M2 posted (this link). Here's a quote: "Chief of Staff Gen. Norton Schwartz has said the KC-46A program should serve as a guidepost for all future Air Force acquisition programs..." Please tell me he's not serious.
  12. Those wily Brits often use the term "college" where we'd say high school instead.

  14. This one's worth a couple minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=grM2sb7VYSs
  15. I hear Syria's nice this time of year.
  16. Can anyone tell this young pup why that's the case? I am/we are probably biased, but I feel like that should be a priority. P.S. More news about models, please. (Condolences to the one above and to men everywhere.)
  17. I know people on this board have uncovered posers before, but generally the offenders at least have the sense to pretend to be pilots or something. I think we all understand the motivation there at some level in that it's a noble and desirable profession. In your WTF? moment of the day, though, may I present a kid who (allegedly) is pretending to hold the dubious rank of smack/four dig/freshman at the zoo, one of the lowest and most shat-upon ranks in the military. While I'm sure he has a perfectly valid explanation for the whole thing, a quick glance at his profile and photos reveals a few inconsistencies: 1. His nametag isn't formatted correctly. Even better than that, he's wearing AF pilot wings. Not cadet wings, not glider wings, real wings. 2. He's also wearing some sort of prop-and-wings type device on his flight cap, but it's not the correct pin and the frosh wouldn't have earned them by December anyway. 3. No one has ever heard of him. He's not listed in the global. 4. He authored several posts during the time he would have been in basic. 5. Most of the stuff he's written doesn't add up. There's a post about his philosophy course from last month, for example. The only philosophy course at the Academy is at the 300 level, so it's taken by juniors. 6. He's listed as being a triple major in aero, astro, and criminal justice. Triple majoring really isn't possible, and criminal justice isn't even a major. 7. Wicked double chin. 8. F a g flap. My favorite part of this is that the real cadets have gotten wind and smell blood. They even managed to get ahold of his girlfriend's phone number. Unfortunately for Mr. Addante, the law concerning impersonating an officer includes cadets as well, so he very well may be hosed. Hope it was worth it. Have fun: https://www.facebook....8072423&sk=wall Edit:In the time it took me to type this post, his profile has mysteriously disappeared...
  18. Check it out: https://www.mtv.com/shows/beavis_and_butthead/series.jhtml
  19. Edit: Beat to the punch.
  20. I leave for IFS this weekend and can't get a flight suit because there's apparently not enough money to go around. Maybe we can all just start flying in blues?
