I knew your Wing king when he was an asshole Sq/CC at Fairchild. Apparently nothing’s changed.

Second to last and last page.

How many 767s fly with one pilot?
-
-
McConnell allegedly submitted a waiver to AMC today to fly the -46 with one pilot and one boom. This is due to them freaking out about pilot retention. This is also against the flight manual.

You were expecting something else from someone who “debates” points brought up in the thread with memes?

The irony is I’m a Poli Sci major from a state school (undergrad). The critical thinking skills I used obtaining that education has helped me out immensely, especially the two times I’ve been in grad school. I fucked up in the Air Force and lost my career, but I didn’t let that define my life. I worked really hard the last five years to get where I’m at today. I think that’s what drives me nuts about a lot of boomers who just sorta road the coattails of their parents, the Greatest Generation, and then lecture Millennials on how “lazy” and “entitled” we apparently are.

“Continue to challenge.”

Should service academies only have STEM degrees? I mean, as a tax payer why should I fund some tard at USAFA getting a B.S. in Philosophy? A lot of college is bullshit. But who told Millennials to go to college or they won’t be anything in life and not obtain a good paying job? Boomers. Oh yeah, let’s talk about the Ivy’s. There’s a reason why those rich and famous parents weren’t cheating their kid into the Comp Sci program at the U of Nebraska. Because those STEM grads have a vastly less change to make it into the Bay Area big money MAANG world compared to Ivy grads. Stop acting like a STEM degree is a ticket to a big payout career. We’re now shifting to where a bachelors is the equivalent of a high school diploma and a graduate degree is now the equivalent of a bachelors. Plenty of Millennials are crushing life right now. Part of it is what you’d said, hard work. Another part of it is being born into privilege of rich boomer parents and getting opportunities that those poorer would’ve never had.

Whenever boomers bitch about forgiving any student loans, I remind them I guess I shouldn’t pay 100% into SSA when I won’t be able to receive 100% SSA due to them. Oh yeah, 99% of jobs don’t have pensions anymore either. But hey, at least boomers will be able to buy that third vacation home.

I’m a PM for a bunch of engineers. Why am I the PM? Because I don’t have weaponized autism and I have a social science undergrad and STEM grad degree. Do you want to live in a world with all STEM majors? I sure as shit don’t. I also don’t want to live in a world full of philosophy majors. The worst pilots I ever flew with were STEM majors. Why? They’re too analytical and a lot of the time that doesn’t translate over to flying skill. Best pilots I flew with? Business/History majors.

By millennial parents, you mean boomers? How do I know? I'm 40, a millennial, and my parents are boomers. College loans are already forgiven if you attain 100% VA disability, which would require national service via the military.
-
You ever stop and think that a lot of Millennials can't afford to start a family early and own property? Probably not. Curious what qualifies as a non-useless degree?

Some states/cities will reimburse owners if they install a level 2 charger at home as well.

2021+ Model 3’s use the heat pump. Source: Me, a 2022 Model 3 Performance owner. Agree with everything you said, I love my EV.

I left banking with USAA in 2019 for Navy Fed. They’ve been outstanding. I still have USAA for insurance due to them being the cheapest for me for the coverage and been flawless for claims I’ve filed in 21 years of membership.

Friend of mine is their Chief Boom.

They just announced their -46 version. However, not all of the watch works due to multiple FCIFs.

Really interesting podcast interview with financier Bill Browder on Putin. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stay-tuned-with-preet/id1265845136?i=1000558237592

Socialism is also a political theory.

https://twitter.com/rshereme/status/1513274193600819205?s=20&t=SjLEhMzuhxY7Abmbu1FEFQ Russia bombed cisterns with nitric acid in the city of Rubizhne (Luhansk region). They turned Ukrainian factory into a chemical weapon against Ukrainian people.

You first, but I can already assume what you had. What qualifies me to make that statement? Someone who had Nav commanders and Pilot commanders and spent 16 years in the MAF. I was a -135 Boom, but that really doesn’t matter. I also currently work on the KC-46 program and interact with the MAF on a daily basis.
-
AMC at least has shed a majority of Nav commanders, which is a good thing.

Yes
