  1. I don't have any updates to that information, but I personally know several herk guys who have done/are on a 365 to teach the Iraqis or afghans to fly herks or c27s. If the 365s are gone and those are now 179-I'll take it. And immediately continue bitching about that particular deployment requirement.
  2. Maybe not currently but since October when I posted that, 2 dudes who worked directly for me have gone to U28s. Or more accurately PC-12 with U-28 followon.
  3. Dempsey is right. Bergdahl may be a tard, but he's our tard to deal with.
  4. Please tell me there is more to the story....or anything to the story....
  5. I asked the same question in the FY15 force management thread and as of now, there is not an expanded PC program for FY15. If you hear about one coming down the pipe, please let us know
  6. Anyone know if there's an FY15 palace chase program similar to the FY14 one? I know regular palace chase is still an option
  7. Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  8. Didn't sweetman write an article last week about the Saab gripen being the best stealth fighter ever? Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  9. 2! Posted from the NEW Baseops.net App!
  10. If you haven't read "when hell was in session" do it.
  11. More like a prisoners dilemma really...
  12. Good riddance. What an asshole.
  13. Related transfer question-when you transfer to your kids, how does that work? I have one kid, so I could transfer it to him. But what if we have another kid later and the first one ends up at the Zoo? Can kid number two use it?
  14. Been there. So have lots of other guys. Hope the timing works for you. Cheers
  15. I'll drink one for you. You're due home from the sandy place soon aren't you?
  16. Correlation does not equal causation. I wouldn't put it past afpc to do something like that, but they've repeatedly shown they aren't competent enough to figure it out. Keep in mind, 365s do not get handed down by the CC. They come from AFPC based on number of short tours, short tour return date and a probably a couple other factors I can't remember right now. But I'm skeptical that vsp application has anything to do with a 365 other than the dudes applying we're likely motivated knowing they were short on the list to get tagged.
  17. WTF happened to this thread? Did we get through all the low hanging fruit about what's wrong with the AF so now we have to quote sections of US code to compare to AFIs? I mean good god, I know the medals stuff is broke, but who cares? Another air medal just means I have to update my service dress before the next time I wear it. Although it is fun to laugh at the finance dude getting a bronze star. Ain't nothing wrong with the AF that a real no shit shootin war won't fix quick fast and in a hurry. Back to my whiskey.
  18. Is the plan to still TFI with the 50th? Or will the 50th shutdown like the 53rd is in the process of doing? Or go J all on their own like the 61st?
  19. What's a NOTAM?
  20. "He is a command pilot with more than 5,000 hours in the KC-135, C-12, C-21, C-141, C-17, B-1, and C-130J." Source: https://www.littlerock.af.mil/library/biographies/bio.asp?id=17011
  21. I think I went a little cross eyed trying to make the connection as well. I guess when a c17/tanker/B1 guy is running the base, it is more important to recognize Popeyes management than the maintainers out fixing the planes or the crews who are deployed right now....it's Saturday and I'm just getting angry. F it. I'm out.
  22. Sarcasm detector bent.
  23. I hear he's a B1 guy...
  24. I know some of them did. I'll throw gasoline on the pissing contest-how's that intra-amc cross flow working out? I don't know how the tanker guys view the herk/17 dudes but I know that the tanker dudes don't do so great in the herk. I mean, they do great enough that they don't die, get upgraded, get promoted and then get to be the wg/cc for a wing flying airplanes they know dick about. But they suck in the plane. Generally speaking.
  25. Fact. Remember a few months ago with that little spat over Syria? Putin walked away smelling like roses while we had egg on our face. I'm not sure that our politicians' egos have recovered from that yet.
