Force Management in NDAA
So if you retired right at 15 years (180 months), then you'd get 35% pay? Doesn't sound altogether like a bad deal, especially if the healthcare is unchanged. You can get out at ~37 instead of ~42, and might be more marketable. And for those going to the airlines, that's 5 more years of seniority.

CSO vs. NFO
Literature? No, but I'm a Whiting IP and we've had multiple NFOs come through as students in the last year.

IFS (Initial Flight Screening) information
Yes and no. They're loggable because you can put whatever you want in your logbook. I would put them in mine. However, they're only usable towards a private certificate if you have all the right endorsements/signatures from the CFI that gave you the training. Since you don't have that, you're kinda SOL as I doubt they're gonna do the legwork for you to get that.

Can't say I'm shocked. We'd get more use out of a light attack aircraft than we ever will get out of the -22 or-35, but the program will never see the light of day as long as Congress doesn't see the benefit. https://www.avweb.com...tml?CMP=OTC-RSS- Operating IMC in a MOA
Big Blue could definitely learn a thing or two from the Navy about VFR ops. They might even start stocking these crazy things called "sectionals" in the pubs room.- RRF metrics / "retain" vs "definetly retain"?

So they could just give up, or... they could live in Gulf Breeze and each drive a little bit, even if it is early. That's probably a better option than telling the guy to live WEST of the base. Just sayin.- T-6s Grounded

Yep. I wasn't in that unit or anything, just thought it'd make a good avatar. Little Rock has had a few planes pushed around over the years, too. Here's higher res and a different angle. I hope the sheetmetal shop got a bonus after cleaning up that mess. edit: I hadn't seen this one before. You can see part of it on the left edge of the pic above.- WTF? (**NSFW**)

I vote no. I don't have a clue about your promotion chances, but I don't think anyone is going to knock you for choosing your family over your career, especially an unpredictable career at that.- Boss, I quit...
Sounds like you've got some insight into their brains that you need to share with the rest of us.- Paris Air Show 2011
