Preventing Air Show Crashes
Let's remember what this thread is about, losing four fellow aviators, not dick measuring and trolling. Hacker: No they are not the chief pilot. Edit to answer Hacker's question.

The Officers Club
First the stupid rules article and now this: I'm sure Air Force Times has been trolling these boards, be on the look out for next weeks 12 page expose on De-Motivational Posters and the bio of a Spec Ops Fighter Pilot. No link to the article, you have to pay for it and I'm not buying that thing, anyone read it? Edit: Speeling

Stanley Cup Finals
I think the people who are the most jaded are the fans in Canada. Living in Winnipeg or Quebec City and seeing your teams move to the Southern US where no one cares would be terrible. That's all Bettman's fault, they need to contract some of the teams and let others move back to Canada. Why the league is against the Phoenix team move to Ontario is beyond me... Anyway Game Two starts soon, Go Pens.

Stanley Cup Finals
While the lockout sucked the stuff that came out of it really helped, it forced them to change the game. Hockey was boring in the late 90s thanks to the trap defense and the lack of scoring. After the lockout they did away with the two line pass rule, moved the blue lines, and created the trapezoid behind the net. All of which has helped the game be as exciting as it is today... Ohh, and Alex Ovechkin helps too. Edit: Forgot the best thing, they got rid of the unholy tie. Shootouts in the regular season are much better.

Good NON-military/NON-aviation books
2 I like anything by Cormac McCarthy (No Country for Old Men and All the Pretty Horses), but his last book The Road was amazing. Scary post apocalyptic story.

C-130 Hercules questions
Your list looks pretty good, they are assigning active duty guys to the 30th at Cheyenne to work with the guard. The pope guys are flying with guard guys as well. The duration of the school house can be from three months to eight months, depending on your assignment out of Corpus. The rumor I heard was that Dyess was next up for Js... Finally, relax, your going to Corpus, focus on finding a nice place on the island, drinking some margaritas, and enjoying Navy training.

C-12 vs T-44 at Corpus
You still have the VFR recovery from the contact areas where you overfly the oil tankers going into the bay, if you wanted to do that sort of thing. Edit: Realized that it maybe hard to do a fingertip photo op when you are single ship, beer maybe effecting my judgment on that one.

C-12 vs T-44 at Corpus
2, The checkride route through the hill country is awesome. To answer stract, being in 35 doesn't change your chances of getting the MC/RC-12, because all of the studs in both 31 and 35 come together at their assignment meeting and pick what they want in NSS rank order.

C-12 vs T-44 at Corpus
I enjoyed my time in 31, there was some debate between the students about the squadrons, but honestly I don't think there was much of a difference in training.
