  1. So we gave them F-16s, but no/not sufficient training. I wonder what their mx will be like. Where have I seen this before?
  2. I’m talking about actual legal betting on who is going to win. People on both sides talk really tough that they’re “so confident” their candidate will win, and yet they would never put money on them winning. Even before Biden dropped out I thought that the election favored Trump, but I wouldn’t bet $10K on it…maybe I would bet a nice dinner and that’s about it.
  3. The fact that you like Walz confirms everything that we already thought about you.
  4. So how much money are you putting on Kamala since you’re 100% sure she’s going to win?
  5. This sucks—may he rest in peace and condolences to his family/prayers to his injured children. Don’t forget to hug your kids and loved ones every chance you get.
  6. Like a real attack, or will it be similar to whatever that was a few months ago?
  7. Do you honestly think that Trump would want to suspend the Constitution if he had the power to do so? If your answer is yes, then we just disagree entirely. And the rest of your nonsense is just that, nonsense.
  8. The only thing I can think of is that the highest “senior leaders” believe that he’s a solid yes man and will push to implement the change they want.
  9. Of course this is a response from someone who gets called out for their BS—you were also called out similarly a while back as well. But again, you recently said that we should be concerned that Trump has said he’ll terminate the Constitution…but then afterwards you admit that it will never happen. So why should I be concerned about something that you and I both agree will never happen? However we look at it, the odds are extremely likely that either Trump or Kamala will be the next President, so of course I’m going to vote for the one who I believe has better policies/screws me the least. All that “Trump is a fascist” stuff is just hyperbole nonsense.
  10. So you’re making a big deal about something that you even admit will never happen—so why should any of us care?
  11. This…and you’re not being a prick. Additionally, how embarrassing to go from being a MAJCOM CC to being in charge of the zoo. The fact that he (I’m assuming) didn’t request retirement says a lot.
  12. So what will you do if Trump is elected, since you’re obviously afraid that he will suspend the Constitution?
  13. I imagine there will be some debates—and I agree, Trump needs to highlight the differences on the border and the economy.
  14. The same people trying to call JD Vance weird also believe that men can have babies…which Kamala has said she believes.
  15. Perhaps the same type of people who would make this “deal”? https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/08/americas/viktor-bout-profile-prisoner-swap-intl/index.html Or this one: https://www.cnn.com/2022/12/08/americas/viktor-bout-profile-prisoner-swap-intl/index.html
  16. “The preliminary investigation revealed two groups were shooting at each other.” While this is horrible for the family, especially losing two children, this incident appears to be gang related, though of course I don’t know all the facts. If so, when a 16 years old is involved with groups shooting at each other, my initial question comes down to parenting—who is allowing their 16 year old to be involved in such activity? Unfortunately this is happens elsewhere in the country and it has to be fixed with better parenting.
  17. Oh I did a staff job many years ago with the acquisition/test world…that movie is like their “Top Gun” lol. But seriously, this is what I don’t understand about even those on the right—they literally want us to spend more money on “defense” and desire more wars/conflict. Talk about throwing more good money after bad.
  18. 1. Well, the Air Force seems to have money for DEI stuff and other nonsense…so while they might be hard broke, resources are finite, and using resources for X then reduces resources for Y. I think this, like every other problem, is a failure of leadership. 2. Are you referring to IFT-R that is/was done in Georgetown TX (link below)? https://www.brunneraerospace.com/usaf-ift-r-program/
  19. The real question is was the Air Force/DoD this bad over 20 years ago and I just noticed it my later years or has it been getting worse and worse? Either way, it’s not good.
  20. If you haven’t received your contracts bonus on schedule, then your CC, his/her CC, and so on should be asking about this weekly, if not daily. This is no different as not receiving your basic pay. I would also reach out to your Congressman’s office ASAP.
  21. This isn’t recent news—it’s been this way for at least 2-3 years now. And yes, it’s embarrassing, but after seeing how AFMC handled the ISS issues with the seats and the OBOGS issues, no one should be surprised. But it’s good that the AF has allocated resources to things like DEI…you know, what really matters when winning wars.

    Big win for Rarebreed and their FRTs (triggers)!
  23. If you only need about 60 hours to an unrestricted ATP, why not just go spend the money and get them?—I get that it could cost you around $10K, but that’s a drop in the bucket when you factor in getting seniority sooner. Also, do you have your CTP yet?—I think you might be able to apply some/all of those(?) sim hours towards your total time.
