WTF tactics does a GH have?

Reference the pred/reaper sensor operators, who can do that on the outside, and the Air Force can tell you they leave in droves. They just don’t care.

They’re buying three of each...there’s no economy of scale at that scale.

That’s not what CAF squadrons look like.

“Medicare for all” which is not actually Medicare in the least. Penchant for “wealth inequality” and “wealth transfer” along with demonizing any success in that realm. I’m not going to list his whole campaign rhetoric, there’s plenty of it.

It’s not just higher taxes. If you think that’s his only step towards full blown socialism, you’re not listening to what he’s saying.

So you think that making it as an elite and then enacting socialism to cut out everyone else from having the chance to make said status is honest?

Bernie has never done anything other than be an elected official. Dude has what, 3 houses? Oh, but let’s tax the “rich” and stunt investment potential thereby closing upward mobility and cementing the elite class.

Combine the questionable governments with boring Tilke tracks (Sochi and China some of the worst offenders...in both categories).

I was disappointed that hadn’t made it through black program/acquisitions by the 2000s to be on the drop list.

There are several people that can vouch that I like to plant it on the runway like it’s a bo-at. Does that count?

Primary radar? Nah, I was just counting on the enemy complying with the ADS-B mandate when they attack since their acquisition process is quicker.

Fixed that for you. adsbexchange.com They’re all about “transparency.” You can watch all the sorties you want. Over the US. Europe. Except Russia.

Planning on sticking around to get a few more hours, or taking the bonus? Taking the bonus because you’re somewhat short on hours and therefore losing the flexibility to punch to a regional if the AF tries something super stupid is a sheepish plan. But that’s one man’s opinion.

Stats are all about manipulation, really. Is it takes/eligibles? If the eligibles in Bombers were mostly not-pilots...there’s your answer.

Who goes to said conference? People who deal only with the pipeline directly, or is there input from those that have to deal with the output?

I’m not talking about someone remotely related or assigned to my shop, I’m talking someone in an entirely different section of the squadron I have no responsibility for whatsoever.

I particularly enjoy when supervisors contact my shop for 1206 bullets, as if it is my job to keep track of what their people have been doing.

The common sense in Top 3 is sometimes less common. I don’t think it’s important for experienced people so much, I can ID my top risks and consider mitigation plans without it; younger guys it can be helpful sometimes. However, sometimes it’s a nice reminder to the higher ups when they don’t for whatever reason see the value in curtailing/cancelling. ^plus, yes, some communities have way more of this than others.

Not yet, in the queue. Just some excerpts in articles, but I think it looks interesting.

That’s absolutely what we did when they wanted a new one down range...based on the heavy handed involvement typically evident (as above), I don’t think management ever actually ran the numbers to see what would get them involved.

Checks. Sounds like most of you guys don’t routinely sit in the jet for three hours for maintenance troubleshooting in 100° heat on your five hour sortie that had you show 4 hours before takeoff. MX slip loses your tanker, your range time, and your coordinated mission training. “Mr Gp cc says he thinks you should still fly duration because you can ‘still get some training.’” ”Broken, confirm you want me to burn 120k and do patterns during my 14th hour of duty day?” ”Yeah, you’ll still get pattern work. “ ”Well Mr GP cc, this ORM sheet you signed off on says that’s not smart.”

I see the point of his allegory...except that for the long history of Britain, it’s known more for fish than chicken. This chicken thing is the new item on the menu.

One of the guys here tried it with PEX a few years ago; it never worked out.
