  1. I've heard the same thing from the guys that are in AFG doing the Mi-17 advisor gig. No need to log EP currency if you're not going to do anything about it.
  2. That area is the like the Serengeti for the Dependopotamus.
  3. Not looking good. Almost 18 hours since the crash and no sign of the pilot.
  4. JFTR Chapter 5.G.3.B Since your orders aren't to a military base, there is no requirement to stay on one.
  5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxiSe4iwwGE
  6. I got the same thing. Answered "no" to every question because they had the descriptor "were you offended" or something similar on almost all of them.
  7. AF Crimes story I hope the pictures that were in the AAR on SIPR will be released. Really showed how badly these aircraft were shredded.
  8. Could have also been a Rucker guy.
  9. They actually had the RQ-170 as an acknowledged MWS....with a 0% take rate.
  10. Both the FAA and the USAF say we can pretty much do what we want within the restrictions of MDSv3 as long as we're safe about it.
  11. As an aside, flying low over the Destin/Ft Walton beaches (especially in the Spring) would normally result in at least a few flashes instead of angry rhetoric. People in FL are just nicer I guess.
  12. Isn't it tomorrow instead of four months ago?
  13. Some people just don't like the sound of freedom ruining their lavish ocean front lifestyle. https://www.10news.com/news/man-says-helicopters-flew-close-to-his-ocean-beach-home-08192014 Also the Navy and Army totally dimed us out on this one.
  14. Another MOH recipient has flown west. First airman to receive Air Force-designed Medal of Honor dies
  15. We've got American Fighter Pilot. That's something right?
  16. Then what's the point of the training report?
  17. It's funny that finance only knows the parts of the JFTR that will fuck you over. Anything in your advantage is like voodoo to them.
  18. So this is probably going to get me flamed but here it goes: I never understand the animosity towards wearing blues if you're in an office environment. IMO if you work in shops like Wg/Staff, finance, MPF, and other back offices that never require and manual labor or getting dirty then there's no reason to wear a utility uniform. If you get the uniform fit correctly and tailored, it's not uncomfortable. I know a lot of the civilian business landscape has changed WRT to wearing a suit and tie to work (ie Mad Men) but that doesn't mean that the military needs to have everybody wear a utility uniform to make them feel like a warrior. If you're job is a support organization that is in an office environment, you should look like it. Granted supervisors that require blind adherence to the "blues on a day" policy take it way too far when they require personnel like CE, cops, MX etc to change when they post or perform duties that actually require a utility uniform. Policies like that are retarded. Wearing an office uniform if your job is in the office seems like common sense. Flame away.
  19. Malmstrom was doing a blues day on the first business day after the daylight savings/standard time change. Don't know if that changed with the new Wg/CC.
  20. Some errors: There are no more UH-1Hs now that the 6th SOS got out of the rotary-wing FID mission. Hurlburt no longer has any UH-1s. The UH-1Ns at Eglin moved to Duke Field in 2012. No HH-60s at Eglin. HC-130Js are also at Kirtland and Moody with a lot more than 7 airframes.
  21. The back seater at 2:35 already retreat?
  22. With all of the complaining about additional duties, I think having a full time one would be even less appealing.
  23. It's more of a strategic integration course than a classic weapons school (I would assume very similar to the Intel WIC). They focus on more integrating with other CAF assets to better enable them to accomplish national directives. They don't get out much and it allows them to see the rest of the Air Force and how they execute the mission. IMO the WIC prepares them to be at the 625th STOS/STRATCOM as planners for targeting/scheduling. The shell game that is involved to ensure that all of the targets are covered with the right number/weapon configuration to ensure the required PK is ridiculous.
