Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
This is exactly why I went Guard and that was the best decision I could have ever made.

True. And there is 0% income tax (TX) versus 8.82% (NY). Plus the difference in how much house you get for the money makes it a big difference in TX over NY

You haven't lived in the NE then. Try paying some NY/NJ income and property taxes there.

That's exactly what happened during TAMI21 and the dark ages of UPT when the CAF pilots saw the situation we are in currently enduring. GTFO ASAP.

Flying fighters and hanging out with the bros is not the reason there is a shortage of fighter pilots.

This argument again?

Goldfein advocating FAA 1500 hour rule change???
But is your math worth it to deal with AD? It's a personal choice, and some believe the power to say no is worth more than your bonus dollars.

It's funny that it takes a GE to make PW better. But hey, let's just sole source everything

Did you just cut and paste my ACSC homework?

Those guys should just jump ship as there are other ways to get your 20. Incompetence should not be rewarded

Air Force/Airline Meeting
But A3s slides said there would be no risk for shortening the B-Course! The reality is that like you said, HAF has accepted the risk. There will be another accident with fatalities after bending some metal, upper management will shrug their shoulders and nothing will change. Yet their OPRs will probably be pretty darn good I'm guessing

For the cost issues, might as well just get LockMart to build the F-16XL and save some money

Things we could want...how about real leaders and not these managers that are flying the servce into the ground.

One of the most funny comments I've read today!

Probably money, like LOTS of it and broken promises

What's wrong with the Air Force?
Weezer, in the CAF if you are out of the jet for a prolonged time or don't fly consistently to RAP(8-10 sorties depending on experience) or beyond you will lose your tactical proficiency. Hence why squadrons generally have to assign an experienced IP to the O-7+ pilots that want to go fly. A lot of times the O-6s and some command bound attached O-5s need a seeing eye Captain to keep things legit or to just mission plan.

Both.

What's wrong with the Air Force?
I couldn't even begin to count how many times I have found this to not be the case.

How much of that profit would be soaked up in new infrastructure and lawsuits?
-
What's wrong with the Air Force?
I'll just add what the ACC A3 said 7 years ago, they "will accept the risks." However, the current slides going up about the risks for cutting short B-Course said there was no risk from the change. That's your upper management working for you
-
What's wrong with the Air Force?
That's fake news, very fake news. Computers are programmed by humans, and the current self driving cars are having difficulty driving with humans around.

AF Light Air Support Aircraft
Got to add that you can sell the LAAR to the fuzzies and let them fight their own battles. Really tough to sell them US RPA technology, though they just buy em from China anyways
-
What's wrong with the Air Force?
Whoa whoa whoa. That Wing Exec has like super important things to do, like get to the senior management's constant wishes and making sure his/her golden knee pads are not being scuffed too badly instead of such trivial things like flying.

What a waste of space and weight to put those ladders in. Might as well add a spiral staircase and chandelier
