Pilot Shortage Deepens, USAF is SCREWED.
BFM this replied to ClearedHot's topic in General Discussion
Current law already allows for this and I'd think that it would be expected. -

So is “Don’t Panic” the canned message displayed in a Tesla in the event of a collision, or just what they chose to put on the screen?

Paul Bannon, huh? I get what you're saying. Wouldn't hang my theories on one of that guy's quotes, regardless of leanings, but whatever blows your skirt up man.

Based on what? A wet dream you had? Really, now that the Meuller investigation is dragging itself into Ken Star proportions, I really want to know if there are any crimes behind the curtain, or if we're going to be subjected to years-long fishing expedition. "Don't be surprised..." GMAFB; if there's something we're missing spill it, dispense with the VagueBooking. Birther-gate was about as tiring as this trope.

Yep. Irrelevant dots. Carter Page, maybe. Collusion by Trump, not so much.

On the flip side, the Nunes memo, for all of the hype leading up to the release, is about as big a nothing-burger as the dossier. Like the dossier, it IMPLIES plenty, while proving little. Like the dossier, it's implications are a cause for concern (the impartiality of law enforcement within the executive branch), but there's no actual proof offered, and no specific illegal acts identified. It's a collection of political sound bites, stamped with a classification header, only to have that header scratched out with much pomp and circumstance. Political theater.

Minimally corroborated? Yes, the subject of the dossier, DJT, is a real person. Aside from that, what has been corroborated? It’s been well established that the dossier itself was spun from whole cloth. It’s fiction, connecting irrelevant dots to imply nefarious intent that did not exist. It does not illustrate real illegal activities, such as directing subordinates to remove classification headers from documents and transmit those documents across lower clearance channels, nothing like that.

E-3's got sponge baths? 90's was weird.

That's the current prevailing sentiment.

That would be full retard. Don’t doubt it for a second.

Slightly on topic What was the outcome of the great Gearpig mystery?

So, then...yes.

“Self deployed”? As in island hopped/Alaska tour?

Not true. It was updated. We went from "if you like your password, you can keep your password" to "Password will expire every 30 days"

Huh. Ok. So, a guaranteed trip for all my friends, or just forewarned is forearmed type thing?

Science project. In the research/data gathering phase with emphasis on accepting limitations and/or debunking hypotheses, but also not loyal to traditional dogma. Exploring all off the shelf technology readily available, including VR and limited "AI" (quotes to caveat a limited subset of AI, not necessarily learning, but programable feedback mechanisms). If the original poster wants, he can put his full writeup here.

Anyone else read the writeup in CAF Fighter FB page. Seems like a reasonable attempt to answer a lot of these questions. Proof will be in the pudding.

This is interesting. This seems to be a perennial discussion like dual mil BAH families. It also seems to suffer from the same biases and stunted thinking as that issue. Maybe I'm wrong, too lazy to look up citations, but there is a reason for the two BAH rates. First rate is to cover housing costs, second is not to cover an ever expanding litter of rugrats. It's to cover the career opportunity costs of being a military spouse. Those costs are not only significant, but very relevant in today's retention climate.

Air Force to begin testing enlisted pilots
BFM this replied to SPAWNmaster's topic in General Discussion
That’s actually a quicker pace than average. My year group was something like 113 per month till the last two months of the year, when the last 900 or so numbers were pickled off in mass chunks. -
Que?
