Butters

Can you draw them?

I always have confidence is someone that spent 8 years away flying running an ops group.

Found one on page 1 of HD's Demotivational Poster Contest.

See PM..

That is how I found Hurley Roberts Service, other guys with the same watch could not find anyone who could replace the battery. I am stating to like the new one much better.

I didn't think they would fix a 7 yr old watch for free. I will keep that in mind next time. How can you not find that funny???

Holy CRAP! That worked. Thanks, could have saved $160 if I had posted this earlier! Well, they did replace the crystal and battery also.

I anyone having trouble with their older Citizen Navihawk? About a year ago my analog hands were no loner matching with the set time.... they were all jacked up. I tried a reset several times, nothing helped. I sent it of to Hurly Roberts Service (the only guys I could find that will work on these things) and they repaired it $160, I paid $200 for the watch in 2000. Well about 3 months later the same thing happened. So, I just bought the new Skyhawk Eco Drive.

No, Kids are not going to exist in the future... replaced by UAVs

Some Hot Chick! Not sure, when I found it on the internet is B. Spears, but I doubt that. Ah, you were there early before someone figured it out! Take that Shoe Clerks!!

Curious how you did that... Were you assigned to JTF?

%100 True. Just flying in support of a mission does not cut it. What Joint Service Medal are you talking about? There are no joint Service Medals for flying related accomplishments that I am aware of. Are to talking about a Joint Unit Award?

I ain't your friend, palooka

Ever notice the statement on you CFP that saya: ***ROUTE SUMMARY - DO NOT FILE*** There are a lot of versions of the story, but the fact is he violated Russian Airspace and if the Russians had not been out of gas he probably would have made the news.... not in a good way.

Oh, my! When I saw the "Comrad" reference I thought... No, it couldn't be? That guy is still around. WTF. The last time I saw him was Frankfurt in June 04, he got OWNED by another squadron commander who was MC for a DV move. Whish I had filmed it! Good Luck guys and gals!

I know what you meant! I was trying to be funny..... Humor and sarcasm never seem to make it through the keyboard.

You just dealt with the Dawg bitch!

A SNAP to HD Jesus HD, is this your first day posting? Have you ever been to the Deid? [sarcasm] Just incase someone does not get what I am saying! Zip, unfortunatley I think you are the only one in this forum that did not get what HD said. Then STFU! Sorry But still, you should STFU! No shit! I am not helping anyone change their socks! As for the sock thing, that is something you have to get all up in someone's chili to check, this is not a case of having your rank on backwards. Go Noles!

How about... Flew 83 Tac lines, 53 during the Day and 30 at night. Restocked squadron snack bar, with crap that will make you fat. Contributed to CFC, $3. Unfortunately some really good leaders make it to the top and are either assimilated or ostracized when they try to makes changes. Back when I was a young safety officer, the squadron was deploying. We looked at where they told us we were going and it was a safety nightmare. There were other choices, but this one was the cheapest so of course that is what we were going with. I tried to pull the safety card, "Sir, if we go here chances are we are going to have a serious mishap..... [data proving my point here]. Boss: "OK, If I go to the CC and tell him we are not doing this, here is what is going to happen. He is going to fire me and get someone else to do it. I know who the person that would replace me is and trust me, you do not want to work for him. So we are going and we a will make the best of it." Well, we went and did not have a major mishap, Only 27 HATRs, 9 bird strikes, and lost one UHF antenna to a mid-field barrier. Most of today’s AF managers would have not even bothered to listen or explain anything. They just would have fired you and gone on signing the higher ups tune. At least my boss listened, and was honest with me about how his hands were tied… and then he fired me and threw me out of his office! Just kidding…

It is possible, but if he gets caught he will have to answer to the Man. When you write someone in on the Orders there is a ton of Go/No-Go checks that are required (no does any of them if they can get away with it), but one thing they do have to do is get permision from the CC/DO or the person who signed the orders. Just fight the space-a crowd and then your bud can hook you up with a good seat, but that is about it. Well, he can also increase the seat release if you don't make the cut.

No, you are still missing the point! He is talking about people who never leave the base. If you Dad flew BUFFs, I am pretty sure he left the base from time to time.

Jesus! What brand of Bourbon are you drinking? I want some! Right on about teaching the ones who are struggling, vs. making fun them.

Fudging numbers is what it is all about. A few years ago this transpired when a General came to visit our deployed location. I cannot say this Generals name so we will just call him "Dirt bag" So, one of the young MX troops stands up during the Q&A portion of this little visit and says: "Hey, Dirt bag, why do base X, Y, and Z keep sending us every POS aircraft in their fleet. We are up night and day trying to get these things flying, every jet on that ramp has a write up sheet 100 pages long..." Then Dirt bag says: "Son, I have know idea what you are talking about I a briefed daily on the MX reliability rate and it is over %90." Young MX troop then has a bag placed over his head and is dragged outside by MX supervision and is never heard from again. I considered for a second standing up and saying: "Listen Dirt bag, you have no idea what is going on because the reliability numbers you are getting are fudged. Every time we show to a jet it is broken, and MX is trying to fix it. Since we show to the AC at XXXX prior to T/O they get it fixed and you never see that the plane had problems. You think everything is fine. Well, it is not. There is a reason we have names for every jet out there.... FU-62, Oh No - 60, Sick Thousand Six, No fly 85! Then to top it off every single time we send that POS Sick Thousand Six back home, it comes right back the next day, with the same shit wrong with it. Sir"
