Selling leave
You can only carry over 75 days now, so if there isn't a possibility to take the leave, and you've maxed out the amount of terminal you can have (by carrying over 75 days from the last FY), why wouldn't you sell some back? You do get taxed on it though, unless you accrued some of the leave in a tax exempt zone.

What has 'improved' in the AF?
Nope, after seeing him speak a few times and interacting with him he is the definition of robot. Plus he's best buddies with the old AMC/CC which wasn't good. You can also include all the sub 35" waist guys who can't do the min amount of pushups and sit-ups. They can get thrown out too.

Don't study before you get to the FTU. You'll study wrong stuff and make my job difficult. What jet?

Is the KC-10 going to be cut?
What's the burn rate of the -46? I bet it's not as high as the -10 (which is double the -135).

You can force extend a -46. You can't with -135's* *minus the RT's

Is the KC-10 going to be cut?
Which wouldn't make sense to put active duty -135's at KWRI since you have Maine, Pease, New Jersey, Seymour, Tennessee, and Macdill on the east coast.

Highly doubt the USAF would leave KSUU without any tankers.

Is the KC-10 going to be cut?
What -135's do they want to move to McGuire? They already have a ANG unit there.

Is the KC-10 going to be cut?
Most -135 crew would rather do that than the strategic mission that the KC-10 community washed their hands of years ago.

Try not to find a new airframe without an FE. They're extremely dangerous.

That's a major foul on leadership in that community then.

Good military/aviation books
I confirmed his SERE story with a SF guy I was carrying Space A. "Oh yeah, the pizza guy, we all know him!"

No, we're broke because we've been at war since 2001.- Top generals: Obama is 'purging the military'
Branch was the CO on the Nimitz when they recorded that series "Carrier."- Is the KC-10 going to be cut?
I heard the same thing back in 2004 about Legacy Herks when the first J-Model flew in to LRF. Things change.- MC-12 Crash in Afghanistan
That's odd because there are two aero sims and associated academics in the PTX syllabi.- Top generals: Obama is 'purging the military'
