Dean Phillips and Biden were the only pres candidates who got votes from my state, so I don’t know how Democratic Party delegates can go and put their say in at the convention for someone else and claim “democracy” is under some existential attack from other sources than their own organization.

Wait, you started the same thread two times without doing something as simple as searching to see if maybe anyone has ever asked about Laughlin UPT in the last 69 years?

First off, UTFSF https://www.flyingsquadron.com/forums/index.php?/topic/23503-Laughlin-UPT-info/page__view__findpost__p__498463

Ugh, just saw that jackasses’ book in an airport bookstore. Least they could have done is put it with all the Danielle Steel books where it belongs.

A pilot, maybe. Intel? Less likely.

The fact the Lt Col couldn’t make the call is dumb. Make the UOD ABUs or whatever, who cares about a one time exception to an idiotic mandate? A shit unit commander.

News piece is still posted on the website announcing it, leadership page says awaiting confirmation/assumption of command.

This carries about the same weight in my mind as when the BBC writes an article that uses a bunch of reddit quotes as its source of authority.

It has been eye opening to see how much the lack of pilots on staff affects strategic to operational planning and decision making. As a younger dude you think it’s just the guys flying tactically leaving AD and TFI that might lose the war… I scoffed the 13O program when it was started, but some of those dudes are saving AOCs right now since they know the process so well, but it still takes some corporate air force aviation knowledge -if you will- to steer them. We killed that program, though, so now there really are no AD volunteers.

FIFY, although to be fair overall manning at AOCs tends to be 40%. More non pilots than not make up who is there for sure.

Someone forgot mission analysis for their implied tasks.

Pretty sure this should include an affiliation disclosure to the linked website and proof it passed an I’m not a robot test.

I’m convinced from Top Gun Maverick that it will for sure.

Or that GPS is a fickle radio signal from thousands of miles away that can be denied.

In two years? Read a book and then make a better argument [emoji849]

His work during WWI was pretty impressive. Went from Lt to Col leading in battle.

Story was really him using 9600 words go say the open ranks inspection is stupid, but we all knew that.

They could put up a wall.

TAP is also valid for a certain amount of time (used to be 2-3 years iirc), so if you anticipate separating get it done.

If you’re not averse to a company that ships: https://www.nugget-wraps.com/s/shop I have no useful info about VPS specifically.

Plus they’re being targeted with something designed to specifically exploit the weakest part of the armor using a technology that is evolving remarkably quickly. Add in the symbolism of taking out “America’s flagship” oldest model.

It was the only way to keep the Top Gun franchise with the single-seat-only F-35.

Roswell Air Race? https://airrace.org/news/national-championship-air-races-take-off-for-roswell-nm-in-2025/

I thought there was an A-10 that gunned a raptor in an exercise that had the silhouette, but I feel like putting it on the side of the A-10 was part of the joke. Could be unrelated.
