    New 36-2903 Guidance Memorandum 2-Piece OCP flight suits are now authorized with MAJCOM/A3 approval.

    The aircraft wasn't that badly damaged considering it was an actual lawn dart.

    It does for Helo-to-Helo transitions. Don't see why it wouldn't for FW as well

    JTR replaced the JFTR.

    It's for the 413th FLTS. They're the DT test squadron for helos including the HH-60W. The UH-1Ns there do range support for the Eglin range as well as limited Huey test operations.

    There's always the T-46

    Clipped the drogue with the prop-rotors while TAARing. USNI Blog The 33rd and 31st RQS made the saves as well. https://www.kadena.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/1030513/midnight-emergency More pictures here. Edit: I just say CH posted the same picture link.

    It already takes 9 months for a 5 month course. I still can't believe they don't PCS folks there for some of the courses.

    Don't give PEX anymore power than it already does. As soon as it gets to Cyber it will become self-aware and schedule everybody for weekly Green-Dot training.

    In fairness that is most likely due to the republican state leadership refusing to expand Medicare and trying and obstruct the ACA at every juncture. Other states like Washington have seen rates decrease.

    No. The AIB should be wrapping up in the next month based on historical timelines. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Baseops Network Forums mobile app

    Actually care about the entire PR mission set from report to reintegration. There are a bunch of times that the helos are still in the wrong side of the fence and the fighters are popping beers at the bar. If it requires cycling off the tanker more than planned to provide OSC or RESCORT then so be it. This is in the weeds but pick a survivor from a strike package flight and have their Bros on the radio talking to their "wingman" instead of random guy with a CSEL.

    One of the initial selectees was a HH-60 IF from the schoolhouse at Kirtland.

    I've had plenty of enlisted flight engineers and gunners in helicopters tell me that I'm a fucking idiot and get debriefed just as well as some instructors. It takes a little while to get there just like the officers but a crusty EF or EG will not just be a "yes sir" type of aircrew member. We don't crash in compartments and they're my only defense when things get dicey and hadji starts shooting, so I trust and take their inputs as much as a pilot.

    Pedro 15 was also downed by enemy fire only 1.5 months after 66. The Army DART team had to put her out of her misery.

    A few AC-130's were downed over the Ho Chi Minh Trail during the Vietnam War as well

    That'll BUFF out.

    It's talking to the guys at Red Flag Alaska....you know "Bandit group high. Fox three"

    Used them for event tickets. I use promotive for stuff and GOVx for events. Good experience so far.

    Don't they do interservice transfers in FW? We have prior Army RW and Navy RW pilots in Air Force helps and they went straight to IQT. No UPT required.

    Good old Sikorski reset fixes almost every problem except AFCS. Funny thing is that there was no "Huey reset". Mostly because there weren't enough avionics to actually reset and the damn thing never broke.

    If your going the flight-only route go with Massif. Although the MCPS pants are the shit.
  23. Breckey
    IMHO the MCPS jacket is shit. It's really bulky and the elastic at the bottom causes it to ride up. Sewing on velcro ruins the water resistance of the goretex.

    1. Food 2. Bars 3. Proximity to outdoor funtivities

    As in "power up" or "torque down" we have that too. Sometimes it doesn't work well or not at all.
