Not true, $ stuff is accurate but Donors flocked once Biden was out. There would have been plenty. Rumor has it the Obamas were readying Mark Kelly to take the ticket and Biden endorsed Kamala with no support from the DNC high ups as a F-U for being ousted in the manner he was. Really sour relations reported between Obamas and Bidens. Mark Kelly v Trump even with a smaller war chest = Trump loss and we’d have a different outcome.

Trump can’t like a Soviet style leader like Putin because he’s a Nazi I thought. Left is braindead Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

F-35s will be updated for decades so fighters aren’t going away, I’d just expect improved cca’s and a continued shift away from “our manned fighters vs their manned fighters” mentality. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

They’ve openly said the B-21 is the first 6th gen aircraft…I just assumed the CCA capes were a given. The F-35 will be the last traditional fighter we produce. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

It’s not hard. 2016-2020 was better than 2021-present unless you are a trans/illegal border crosser/indebted student/Taliban/woman unable to figure out birth control/welfare recipient/guy who wants to compete in women’s sports/person wants to get paid not to work. Who’d I miss? Choice is easy to vote for Trump despite him being a dickhead on Twitter. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I remember clearly the sortie I was on in Early 2006, my second deployment, thinking “WTF are we doing here?” when chiefs were on a reflective belt kick and the ROE was rediculous. I like to think maybe I helped someone make it home but in big picture look back, what a waste of time and resources. And everyone at the Maj level and below knew it while leadership just padded stats to get ahead. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

After 20 years of the GWOT we got bogged and lost focus/motivation. I think the USAF is a really exciting place right now as we face the emerging threats. I’m not sure a lot of GWOT raised/indoctrinated leaders are the right people to inspire the masses to meet the challenge. Most of the good things I see are by young smart and intrinsically motivated pilots while leadership fumbles with meaningless qweep, DEI and inconsequential tasks. I liken the modern fighter environment akin like it’s early 80s F-16s vs MiG 29s trying to figure out tactics with rapidly changing tech constantly emerging. It’s not just an exciting time for fighters. Tankers, Bombers, anything logistic or space all should be psyched to be part of the changing era of warfare. Leadership right now is really poor at conveying the excitement of it. Truth is, I’ve talked to 2 star generals who are my bosses bosses and they have no clue the realities of the new environment at the “meaningful” tactical level.

This guy definitely cc’d the bosses on the email to show he’s a USAF indoctrinated leader. On the fast track for sure at SPS Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

It’s a sad truth but I still gotta vote for Trump to try to stop the far left advance who are continually emboldened when nobody opposes them. It’s like supporting the Soviets fighting the Nazis in WW2…painful to do but with no good options, it’s the lesser bad one. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

The parallels between the communist party and the democrat party is amazing. Maybe not direct views but the corrupt power dynamic, control of supporters, schemes to retain power etc. I just read 2x books about communist defectors and how they described discovering the fallacies of communism was pretty much the leftist playbook.

Her given name was Crisis. It happened real quick when she got to Hill. She’s cool, doubt it was her doing but it’s very hush hush as to how/why it happened. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I don’t think any USAF silhouette is more than a joke if it’s not up holding tradition…but any tradition can be trumped by DEI such as the unilateral renaming of the F-35 demo pilot to something that sounds cooler. Tradition be damned. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Not an expert but my guess is that it will not add to your 20 but when you hit age 60, it will. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I don’t think it plays in. Once you hit 20, each day you work adds to your TIS. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

Yes, it’s the indispensability program which is a 2 yr TR contract. I know multiple people who have done it recently, and they are rewriting the regs to make it easier. You have to find a unit in need of manning and be in a needed career field such as a current 11F. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app

I’m following the process and will keep you guys updated. Honestly knowing the guy, I think he’d be spun up to be an FTU IP pretty quick and do it better than some of the foreigners we have to spin up. I wouldn’t think we’d waste 6 months TX/IPUG for 1.5 yrs of instruction…..then I realize it’s the USAF so economics make no sense. I’ve seen worse.

Fighters are a source of pride. Most NATO allies need more support aircraft but they don’t look good at airshows. Some allies are buying shiny new F-35s and still using the missiles they bought from the 90s. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app
