  1. If you want UPT, then wait and apply at your station. Going 18U isn't going to get you to UPT.
  2. It will be MQ-1s. They are standing up their cadre in the next month; some good people are going to be out there. Las Vegas might not be for everybody, so if you want something different that isn't Clovis, you could go live in Warrensburg or Sedalia.
  3. Right, but let's be honest: it's still ASBC, who gives a crap? I wouldn't put any weight behind it; it's like winning the special olympics. DG of your FTU, now that I might pay attention to.
  4. If they were drinking the blue koolaid, they'd want everything to be a UAV...
  5. Given the concern for bad leadership killing your hopes, I find this article strangely appropriate. Mods can move/delete if they disagree (Edit: not challenging your authority, just confused on whether this fits the category). The Perfect Stimulus: Bad Management Warning for BQZip01: Scott Adams challenges your dominance in the PowerPoint field:
  6. C-130s and CV-22s from Cannon are trying to expand their night low level training from the standard LL routes to almost all of the mountainous parts of NM and CO, so it is more like Afghanistan. Residents are already complaining about the impending noise. Who knew anyone lived in NM to complain? Air Force Flyover Plan Draws Flak: Residents in Colorado and New Mexico Fear Impact of Military's Nighttime Sorties Give me a break.
  7. Probably none, but I know of some good Do Not Promote candidates; I'll keep you posted.
  8. Jango needed a friend on the board to back him/her up, so he/she thought it would be helpful to create another alias "redmammal," thinking that no one would figure it out. Because no one has ever done that.
  9. When is your enlistment up? Send out a save the date, I can't wait. One more hurdle we won't have to jump over to get the mission done. Cut all this "I'm for the mission" crap, you've already described earlier in this thread you won't flex to help the ops out.
  10. https://www.autotalk.com/audi-autonomous-tts-pikes-peak-4791/ https://www.insideline.com/audi/tts/autonomous-audi-tts-pikes-peak-will-make-high-speed-driverless-test-run.html https://www.electricpig.co.uk/2008/08/13/fully-autonomous-buses-head-for-france/ Troll the troll.
  11. As of 01 Oct, the Nellis club will only be open Wednesday and Friday.
  12. It probably won't make much of a difference, really.
  13. Whether those changes were kept or not, please direct your attention to reference 6.
  14. These stats probably don't exist. I can imagine them pulling up Band Of Brothers, scrolling forward to Moose Heyliger being shot by friendly forces, and saying, "if Moose had been wearing one, it wouldn't have happened."
  15. He ran 1.5 miles in 8:30, and lost 13 points on the waist? I'd have to see it to believe it. Edit: dyslexia
  16. U.S. Judge throws out piracy charges against 6 Somalis who attacked Navy ship
  17. No, I have a Wall Street Journal one though.
  18. ACLU and CCR recently lanuched a legal challenge to the military targeting American al Qaeda members. Awlaki vs. Predator: Other lawyer-types say : "American members of al Qaeda aren't merely criminal suspects. They're active enemy combatants who can be targeted like other terrorists." It's a subscription-restricted article, so here's the text; I thought it was interesting. As for the ACLU, WTF.
  19. Someone else will be dropping weapons off of the pilot's airplane? WTFO?
  20. Preds do, and Hacker shacked the pin in the wing. One on the ball is for the laser.
  21. This has been a topic of discussion before.
  22. Article: Giant Mecca Clock Seeks to Call Time on Greenwich BL: "Scientists" would like the world to start new days based on Arabian Standard Time, to now be defined from the 2000ft clock, instead of GMT( or UTC really, but in either case it resides at 0 Longitude). Here's the real winner: If there were no magnetic variation there (which there is), you might be able to claim the first bolded part, but the lack of magnetic force and lessened effects of gravity are just ridiculous. Edit: A native Saudi who views the clock itself with disdain
  23. Germany Closes Hamburg Mosque Where 9/11 Attackers Met
  24. Must be Fox News, WSJ had a different photo and a seemingly correct caption.
