I sport a beard during the winter months, too hot and itchy for me in the summer. Takes about a month to be decent, but I keep it really trimmed up. I can’t stand the guys at work who don’t take care of theirs and make us look like shit to other airlines. I don’t jump seat, is it true that Delta will not let you jump seat if you have a beard?

I wonder if he is ostracized by his squadron mates? Can’t imagine he is much fun to be around. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

It’s amazing the amount of building going on there. Construction cranes everywhere. I’ve stayed in Shanghai and Chongking and on the ride from the airport to the hotel, it was very surprising at how dark these buildings were. My assumption was they were empty since there was zero light emitted. But these apartment buildings were everywhere. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

It’s not that they are too stupid, they assume we are too stupid to know any difference. They only look down on us. It’s the elitist attitude. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Does flying start feeling like a job after a while?
herkbum replied to Bropofol's topic in General Discussion
We had a Dr in my ANG unit that was a pilot. She never had a problem being proficient at both. It’s very doable if you want it. A few years after retirement from the ANG, she obviously remained a Dr, but she missed flying. So she now flys for AA, and does her Dr thing on off days.

That bio is a word salad of bullshit. When I read this kind of crap, I always picture that bar scene in Good Will Hunting where he’s mocking the Harvard idiots. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I have a VNSH. It’s ok but feels like overkill sometimes. It does give you options on location of carry. But it’s what I imagine wearing Spanx would feel like. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Back from the gun shop. Went with the P365X. Night sights, thumb safety, 12+1. Fits hand perfectly. Think I’m going to like it. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I’m an Sig guy for sure, they just seem to fit my hand better than most. Love my P250 and P226. Heading to the gun store today to fit test a few. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

The Gun Talk thread is up over 300 pages and I’m a lazy retiree now. What’s everyone carrying for CCW? I have an Sig P250 in my truck and a G42. I’m giving the G42 to the wife and thinking about going with the P365. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I’m going to caveat this by saying that I am retired and can’t speak to the current internal climate of nsplayer’s wing. But I will say that I have known the WG/CC and Command Chief for a long time and consider them very close friends. They are 2 of the most fair individuals I have ever served with. When the WG/CC was a SQ/CC, I was his DO. One of the best commanders I ever worked for. He always asked my opinion or for my advice. He was well informed and a great aviator, but more so , he was a great person. I am sure he addresses the social issues but I would be very surprised if they drive his decisions. I would say the very same thing about the Command Chief. That wing is in great hands. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
