AF Light Air Support Aircraft
Naive? First off, as jazzdude alluded to, the Army understands aviation to work in the realm of one localized ground commander as his personal artillery (or what have you, based on type of aviation). They don’t play well across the entire AO, and it turns out most air platforms can go across a distance rather quickly and potentially be used to assist more than one ground commander in a somewhat efficient way by weighing priorities and current need instead of hoarding them like sandbox toys. Second, Lawman may have some experience in the matter. Bold call out.

It’s all luck and timing, with increased probability because he’s a great dude.

Guard/Reserve timeline to UPT
Scrolling on the Reserve side takes a couple months, so definitely start that process with a Reserve recruiter if it’s a Reserve unit. It will stay effective as long as you stay in the same rank when you transition.

Degradation of SUPT
At least, since UPT 2.5 coincides with the halving of FTU training, while the ops squadrons bleed instructors...

That’s not what you said.

Promotion and PRF Information
BS. I have zero fucks to give for active duty asshattery, but plenty for the mission. Choke yourself about this positive narrative BS; the world isn’t all roses.

ROTC instructor?
I think that’s where it’s key for flyers (probably det cc) to bring some of that knowledge/stories with them, if the AF isn’t going to help re relevance like you’re referencing. My Det CC was a F-111/F-117 guy, which I remember being a plus.

Aviation Continuation Pay (ACP - The Bonus)
Wait, how else would we know if “it’s their turn”?! Should also apply to TRBs in certain airframes along with “they need it for their PRF.”

I’m over Grosjean because he’s a has been. Ocon was up for grabs this year, Hulkenburg is up for a seat...and you’re sticking with someone who is at the ceiling of their potential.

Probably because it’s called Le Mans ‘66 everywhere else, really is more that story. They just retitled it for America because of marketing.

Yeah; It’s waterproof and actually fits under the harness.

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).
