  1. One question to ask when looking for a financial advisor... "Are you wealthy?" If they aren't (most aren't, or they wouldn't be working as a financial advisor to begin with), then why would you let them manage your money? There are a few who truly do it to help people, and most are independently wealthy due to their knowledge of finance. I personally know of two retired O-6s who do it pro bono...

    Good point. We all have to start somewhere though...

    Spawn of PYB? Maybe he's reproducing...
  4. Clarify please. Was he a prior C-130 IP, or a prior C-130 pilot/copilot now instructing in T-6s? It matters...
  5. Rat--suffice it to say you have no idea what you're talking about. You're the FAIP that makes every other FAIP cringe, because you don't know what you don't know. Take the advice of an old FAIP--STFU, listen more, and talk less. You, and your entire community, will be better for it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - now Free

    Unfortunately, he's not exaggerating Champ. As an ORF sim instructor, we have a bunch of brand new LTs fresh from UPT who are working on their AAD while going through initial qual. Their GK sucks because they're spending more time on AMU/Touro/E-R than in the Dash-1/3-3.
  7. Checks...a classmate of mine had 2600 hrs, was a CFII and commuter pilot, and couldn't find his ass with both hands in the Tweet or -38. Hooked EVERY checkride in UPT at least once (one twice)...
  8. Chem, Relax and enjoy the next 9 months, because beginning in May you're going to be busting your butt for about 3 years to become fully qualified in whatever aircraft you end up in. The AF will teach you what you need to know, and IMHO you're honestly not going to gain much by studying ahead of time. If you're hardover on studying ahead of time, go to the AF Pubs website, search for AFMAN 11-217, and start reading...just remember most of what you read will not apply to anything you're going to do at UPT.

  9. Got the same warning for the first time today using Firefox...

    YGBSM...where do they go? Unbelievable. In the big picture, maybe this is good news. We (you, as I have retired) have nowhere to go but up...

    Has anyone even washed out of these schools? Serious question...

    Ouch... https://www.foxnews.com/science/2013/08/12/testicle-biting-fish-may-be-invading-denmark/?test=latestnews
  14. Then you probably shouldn't be talking about them...
  15. He spells it "Hu"...

    Now that's some funny $hit right there...
  17. Tried to end it as a Chief Pilot, and was told to shut up and color . You are (were?) in a much better position to do something...
  18. Saw it for my entire career (11M). One of the reasons I chose to retire at 20...

    Another good article from Tony Carr. It's focused on the enlisted, but equally applicable to the officers... https://www.jqpublic-blog.com/?p=431 This is in response to the AF Times article referenced in post 565 of this thread.
  20. https://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2013/06/21/us-govt-starts-shopping-for-new-presidential-limousine/?intcmp=features Found a job for him...

    They are...have you been to Colorado lately? ETA: Missed Ramius' post (old age)...
  22. Getting a "page not found" message on DVIDS link...anyone else having issues viewing the video?
  23. I grew up about 10 miles north of there, so it wasn't that bad either. That was 25 years ago, though...
