  1. I have to wonder how much of things like this are weighted towards he’s a lying POS and weighted towards his mental deterioration/constant level of confusion. Obviously neither is a good thing for a president.
  2. “Asked how a roomful of fighter pilots would assign such a name at a time when military members are supposed to have been warned about inappropriate sexual behaviour, Huddleston said he was at a loss.” You’ve never been to a Vegas naming that started 8 hrs after the first beer was cracked in the pool that morning?
  3. Agreed they hate America, but this also isn’t an event I expect (or want) politicians to officially comment on. Maybe local level in a condolences way, at most.
  4. DAL has updated “12 months” to “2 years” for AD and ARC. If you have orders ending < 2.5 years, you’d be crazy not to have an app in!
  5. ANG and RES develop their own bonuses separate from AD, and each other, every year. They almost always match or exceed the AD bonus…at least in the last 6 years of my experience.
  6. To be fair, that could also be “WUG”
  7. I’m not arguing doctrine has changed, simply that the machine is a ludicrous choice to support the doctrine. Honestly some sort of light attack would have been a much better choice for what is needed on STOL side, super hornets to replace classic hornets, and then we also would have benefited from a much better A and C model for the AF and Navy.
  8. The 320 landing I witnessed last night gave the 73 standard a run for its money!
  9. Isn’t landing on a carrier something like 650 fpm?
  10. To be fair, you don’t seem to grasp how the MEU concept and objective is not in the same ballpark as the fights an F-35 is designed for. The mission and the asset are completely at odds in several ways.
  11. Plenty of data from the last two years of studies showing masks are not effective at any reasonable rate WRT to Covid; unless you consider single digit percentages (cloth) “effective”. Surgical masks are somewhere in the teens to 30s. N95 is the only thing that’s marginally useful, and that’s really only if worn correctly and used one time then disposed (which almost nobody actually does). The CDC has no credibility.
  12. The B model is fucking retarded and is the RC for nearly everything not liked about the F-35. Even marine bros will back that up. Stupid acquisition decision that forced a lot to be left on the table. But here we are… Glad he got out safely.
  13. Thanks guys, just wanted to see where I was on the getting-fucked-train.
  14. Anyone know which zip you get BAH based on in the guard - base zip or your current address zip? Does type of orders, type 1 vs 2, etc. make a difference?
  15. If you can afford to fly, do it, but do not spend money you don’t have to get an IFR rating - it’s not going to make much difference.
  16. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/gen-petraeus-ukraine-military-readiness-priorities-ndaa-vax-mandate-outrage-manufactured Somebody’s getting kickbacks from pharma…
  17. There are so many kids in this position. It’s heartbreaking. Anyone who champions this trans stuff, especially in kids, is a huge POS and a truly awful human being…and too many of them are teachers, superintendents, etc.
  18. Well that was a nice way to peg my WTF meter this morning.
  19. That’s true. You can obviously fly more, just won’t help increase your PCSM.
  20. Moved 6x in 11 years on AD, pretty typical in the F-16 community.
  21. That’s it boys, right there. Bitch all you want about all the shithead voters in this country, but that will accomplish nothing. This is the only way forward to get the GOP back where it should be, and stop the insanity the Dems (via progressive takeover) have inflicted on our country.
  22. An Army O-5 does something incredibly retarded? I’m shocked!
  23. False, they objectively do not even accomplish that!
  24. Also, Biden wants another “assault weapons” ban because “common sense and things,” meanwhile you only have to look a few days back at the Netherlands to see precisely why the 2A exists and is critically important to the survival of a free society. Thank God the GOP was able to narrowly take the house, else bullshit like that may actually pass.
