  1. A DTS voucher covering the location and dates should suffice. If you got the tax free a non-traditional way (like overflight of that one area near Kosovo that is still somehow tax free) you need to explain it with an 1881. Anything 2017 finance can't pay out directly. I think the best they can do is give you a corrected W-2 and then you will need to file an amendment with the IRS for the 2017 tax year.
  2. They really need to bring back deployments to MK, but only during the summer.
  3. Oh yeah the per diem resets. It doesn't really happen that much. I was out for 90 days last year and got a total of 0 resets on my per diem.
  4. What is the flyers per diem?
  5. You need to move your deployment location to Kuwait then.
  6. Who spent all that money on the tan? Non-flyers who were issued OCP when they deployed? Flyers have been wearing tan bags and boots forever
  7. I think the original point was: How do you receive your ATP? Regional will pay for it, but is that worth the time you’ll waste there to get your number at a major?
  8. Not exactly you would still be taking a huge cut for the year if you have to give up that bonus because hourly at Regional is still low, and the pay while in training is lower.
  9. That’s easy. Match 12 yr O-4 pay (base + basic BAH) and you’re at $104k. If the regionals can do that, it’s a no brainer. I’d speculate that most people would bail if the regionals locked you in for a year by paying for ATP and pay/bonus was in the range of 75% of that O-4 pay number.
  10. The word ordinarily is key. JTR is not mobility aircrew tailored. Claim where you actually stopped. This is silly.
  11. All I know is the EC-130J PA Guard guys do definitely deploy regularly to one of the hottest places on earth
  12. And always build authorizations with variations authorized checked. You never know when stuff gonna change.
  13. Forgot about that part. Guess pilot retention is not solved.
  14. stupid autocorrect. OPSEC
  15. Nice opec /sarcasm
  16. Yeah not a chance, 0-3 Pay tops at $6583.50 at the 14 year mark. Even in a high-ish BAH area of $2400 thats still only getting you $107k per year. Granted $28k of your income is non-taxable, but still. The bonus would have to be >$60k and limit deployments to 90 days every other year for me to even consider something like that.
  17. Ah yes, re-reading the article it does mention it... So I guess in 1999 they upped the 6 year to it's current level. With no changes to the under six, LOL! So we are clear, that's when the AF or DoD changed it. 1989 is when congress upped it to $850 and 2016 they increased to $1000.
  18. Yeah I'm quoting myself from the ACP thread. Quotes within quotes got stripped so see how it should actually look here: Nobody should be blindsided that this increase is a joke.
  19. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doxing
  20. QFT. Straight DOXed. Since I'm here: flight pay whats up with it?
  21. Don't go too crazy there big hoss, with the FC1 you can only exercise the privileges of a FAA Class 3, which for most is good to fly their own Cessna around. *Caveat, I have heard of dual flight surgeons/AMEs which can issue a FAA Class 1. But if you go out with your 2992 or whatever stupid form medical gives you once a year and anytime you RTFS, you're FAA Class 3. To answer the original post, if I could afford it I would fly GA more.
  22. ATC at KWRI wants a flight plan filed to transit to KNEL, 5 miles away...
  23. If for any reason you de-pressurize in flight make sure you check on your pax and seriously consider diverting to an excellent American air base before continuing 5 hours to the sandbox.
