Bingo. If not, he definitely hated Creech.

What ISIS Really Wants This article seems to analyze the underlying fanaticism fairly well (as far as taking things back to the 7th century), but these are his analysis of COAs, if you will.

Weird that 11SF didn't make the list. I thought they'd be hurting.

And by study on RPA caps, you mean he said the AF would fill whatever request the ground units put forth at whatever the cost was without regard to money or manning.

Because blind assumption never fails. Edit: why do you want the system to stay as-is? It can be improved upon.

In AFGSC, not just limited to A3H (if...and I'm assuming here... the H is for helicopters). We had a SPO rep stand up and tell us recently that essentially they were surprised that Link 16 was viewed as an important capability.

Chill the fuck out. Absolutely false. My precious sq/cc has never had an assignment outside of flying. Dealing in absolutes is a dangerous business from both sides.

Haha, nice. I admit mine was more a play on Fogle's "combat xxxx" BS, but good work.

Will this make him a combat cameraman?

Exactly. It covers TOs, GP, charts, approach plates. Weighs 1.69 lbs.

Secretly building in the Mojave desert? What is this, a Fifth Gen trainer?

Are you saying that talking about the Air Force attempting to retire an asset that we recognize as valuable is tantamount to treason?

He must have flown with Brian Williams.

All of AFGSC is using EFBs, and there's a ton of majcom level testing/certifying that went on over about 2 years. It developed from a conemp to a full up AFGSCI. They're finally at the "use them for TOs, FLIP, and moving map/live Wx" stage. PM me your .mil and I can send you some details that hopefully get you talking to the right people.

I thought the light greys were already at the v3 stage. Stragglers?

Bullshit. What they don't want to be is you. People who have served have served and should be thanked. Everyone has to make their own decision when they are done.

Brutal! "Combat Graduation"?

Yes, you work every weekend and never get Saturday or Sunday off. For the adults in the room the most common schedule that Chaff refers to is: 5 flying days, 1 admin/on-call day, 2 days off. So, as discussed, your weekend moves a day per week, i.e. Sat/Sun, then Sun/Mon the next week, then Mon/Tues the next week, etc.

Valid consideration.

It's not entirely analogous to the AF and AFPC since we're more like inmates than customers, but crose enough. Interesting that behavioral science considerations are fairly high on some corporations' list in customer retention.

Haha, nice. I hadn't looked into it yet, but now I know where to look. Thanks.

It was more sarcastic quip about how a huge cheating ring made them the highest paid. Actually, it was entirely a shot at that.

Our SARM people told us this morning not to bring them 1042s anymore, make sure it's a 2992.

Maybe not anymore: Missileers are now highest-paid lieutenants thanks to massive-scale cheating bonuses

What interests you, and which field do you want to work in when you're not on orders?
