  1. You can get a flying assignment, you just have to recat to UAVs first. Isn't that a WTF?
  2. There's some kind of world of Warcraft lightning bolt in there, too. Can't forget that.
  3. Concur. Having seen it, I'd wait for Netflix or something.
  4. There's also a DB station in Kaiserslautern that makes getting places pretty easy.
  5. That worked well in 1914 and 1939.
  6. The full article: Ten Thousand Feet and Ten Thousand Miles Hadn't seen it posted yet.
  7. This thread has to do with wind turbines... close enough: Large Wind Farms Increase Temperatures Near Ground The irony.
  8. Former Air Force General: Stop Terrorists With More Airpower (and stop nation-building) Army Col. and Marine Lt. Col.: That will never work
  9. Premature, there are still navs.
  10. Yep, regular Norman Bates. Another gem: Florida man mistakes girlfriend for hog, shoots her I thought, "WTF does your girlfriend look like if you made that VID error," but then there was this line: ^RC
  11. Man poses as dead mother for six years to collect Social Security
  12. Spoken like a true geek. I bet the squadron came to a halt because this guy was at practice, or missed a circle-jerk briefing from some motivational speaker. YGTBSM.
  13. Having a consolation would require the AF to recognize UAVs as a bad assignment.
  14. I suppose this would be an official source, if there were any results present. Maybe in a bit. Pima County Elections
  15. Cannon... who's going to step up?
  16. There are some who call me... 'Tim'...?
  17. Some have started TDYs for training; expect PCS for them to occur summer/fall.
  18. This will be Type 4 control... bring the rain.
  19. Yep, it took them two years to get the A-12 flying Mach 3+ at 69,000 ft, but in 26 years they haven't been able to get the environmental system in the F-22 to work.
  20. Whether it's pilots in the airplane or not, you still have the airplane, maintenance, and fuel roughly the same... which are orders of magnitude bigger cost than the pilots. What you will probably add in, and which maybe you haven't considered, is some amount of satellite bandwith, which isn't cheap.
  21. Hah, speaking of apologies... labeled "Obama's Afghan mission statement"
  22. Not if terrorists were using them to pass information. In that case, feel free to dispose of them as needed.
