That’s the funniest shit I’ve read on this site in a long time.

I know you HAVE to be acting intentionally obtuse, but are you aware of a document called the NSS? Or take a trip over to INDOPACOM and review their strategic mission documents. Just because we have intertwined trade does not make them not our strategic rival. We bought all the titanium for the SR-71 from the USSR. Were they our partners?
-
Same.
-
Truth. Good for big airplanes, at least.
-
Well you guys usually find it by hanging out in the turbulent cloud layers after being late to the IP with less than required offload, so thought I’d bring it.
-
That survived their bankruptcy?

Your cookie is in the mail.

Haha, you are 100% the toddler. You never explained what the problem actually is, you just keep saying stiffness sts. You don’t actually know what the issue is, you have apparently just rote memorized it which isn’t impressive.
-
Oh no, not systems and limitations! Forgot about those. I’ll never succeed. I trust the engineering knowledge of the average pilot about zero. By your logic, since I’ve been a receiver on the 46 boom I’m just as qualified to have an opinion.
-
Oh, good. So you click the AP on after gear up, thanks for the engineering analysis.
-
Are you involved with the program, or is that your incorrect assessment? I’m not involved with the program and don’t care for your pedanticism. You described an aircraft that lacks sufficient performance to interact with the boom. What would you call that?
-
Excellent. Articulating requirements has not been a strong point recently.
-
Sounds like the AF didn’t pay enough money to unlock the WB software.
-
And the ability of one aircraft to perform enough to be compatible? Seems like it’s still a performance envelope problem. Also that boom isn’t stiff it’s on a ing ratchet.
-
More to do with the low speed aircraft/boom performance envelope there.

Anything where you’re working (no pun intended) towards a goal by tackling a challenge and can make it a positive story is not going to negatively impact getting an interview. Lots of people get laid off, so having an interim job while you try getting to another is not a death knell. -
Peak SF for tourism was probably 15 years ago; now they’ve “progressed” so much they’re regressing.
-
We have millions of barrels of SPR to refill. Probably not a lot of bottleneck there.

Just in case: Turns out he’s free to withdraw from the Ukraine anytime.

FIFY

Also dealing with Venezuela to ease sanctions so they’ll produce more oil. If only we could produce our own.

Standard.
-
Valid.

I know this belongs in the C-130 thread, but as an aside what form factor fits more than 8% of the Army’s stuff that isn’t a C-17?

Best the 60s had to offer. Hey, when you’re moving from a 1950s plane to a 1960s one, it looks like an improvement.
