  1. Yeah, thats my point. It's one of those persistent myths.
  2. I've heard this my whole career but have never seen or heard of it actually being a thing.
  3. My laughing reaction was a nervous laugh πŸ™‚
  4. If you're not running an adblock extension on your browser you are severely missing out.
  5. Can't go to Walgreens or CVS with your ID card? I did with TRS. You can here at least.
  6. Trick is to tell them you are final outing in a couple days despite what the checklist says. Shit starts flying off that list with ease.
  7. Retirement outprocessing is mind blowingly simple. I probably spent about 1/2 a day emailing/geting signatures and was done. Medical takes the most lead time.
  8. No issues with signals canceling themselves out?
  9. Airstrikes on who? The people who are providing the first layer of security for the only foothold you have left to get thousands of people out of the country? I'm guessing that number you're looking for is going to be zero.
  10. You're mistaking incompetency for conspiracy
  11. Watching DOS brief right now. Reporter just asked if there was COVID testing at the airport before letting people in or on planes.....How fucking out of touch can you be with reality there on the ground.
  12. As more info comes out from those on the ground there, the entire situation was completely out of hand and if any of these folks running around had ill intentions, there wasn't anything to stop them. I would imagine the debrief when it comes out will be astounding. We could have easily lost many many airframes and people.
  13. No crew member has been Q3'd nor is there plans to Q3 them.
  14. Reference the Indian Chinese anchorman style brawl at the border.
  15. They have had 7+ months to execute some form of operation that didn't result in the optics that occured the last couple of days. Regardless of what "deal" they were "stuck" with, the last two days didn't have to go down the way they did. He and the rest of the DOS/DOD own that at a minimum.
  16. It's not even close to any limit. I'd put the average weight at 175 max. 670 pax. Flew a flight into Bastion that was ramp to lav boxes of 40mm grenades.
  17. Two dudes fell off of the plane and the mx folks probably found some more up in the wheel wells when it landed. Its going to be a class A. Nothing to do with the pilots.
  18. It won't look like that only because there aren't any helos with skids there πŸ™‚
  19. Beat the general requirement by over 1.5 minutes. Edit. It looks like it was about 4 minutes from possible alarm to the first big truck pulling up. (2) The response required by paragraph (h)(1)(ii) of this section must achieve the following performance criteria: (i) Within 3 minutes from the time of the alarm, at least one required aircraft rescue and firefighting vehicle must reach the midpoint of the farthest runway serving air carrier aircraft from its assigned post or reach any other specified point of comparable distance on the movement area that is available to air carriers, and begin application of extinguishing agent. (ii) Within 4 minutes from the time of alarm, all other required vehicles must reach the point specified in paragraph (h)(2)(i) of this section from their assigned posts and begin application of an extinguishing agent.
  20. He comes off as a giant smug douchebag.
