Worst come to worst, PM me, we have a Viper bubba out here who does this and is pretty good at it. He might charge a little bit though, but his builds and inventory is epic........and by that I mean, he threw them all into Lake Havasu.
Course correction? You go to time out and hand over your mancard. The shenanigans I was a part of as a LT in Korea pale in comparison to today's trouble making. I miss the days of racing our spray painted beater cars down JJ taxiway half lit with the crew chiefs rooting us on. I have pics somewhere, but alas, a few of the guys are FS/CCs now, so no posting.
Well, yes, and I used to be totally against it, but now I am not. The tanker/airlift/SOF bubba need to speak to fighter WO's when planning/executing a war on a different level than most. WIC teaches that.
I personally know 2 that came off active duty as WG patches (both about 12 years of service), put back into the squadron as the weapons officers through about their LtCol boards (ROTMA, think 2 above the zone), moved back to WG patch. Then destined for leadership roles. I think AD could learn something from this.
I quoted it all just to get your attention, sorry. Why don't the docs do a cancer screen during our yearly flight physicals? CEA test couldn't be that expensive.
Or the fuel, or the oil, or the altitude, or the chemical makeup of the cockpit....who knows. I know 3 mid 30's fighter pilots with cancer, one just died. I shouldn't know 1 much less 3.
