  1. In addition, it seems DFAS has stopped sending me monthly e-mails telling me I need to opt out of the new retirement system for which I'm not even eligible. That leaves even more space in my inbox for CGOC dumbfuckery (again - not eligible).
  2. My bad. I thought the banner I saw on the Portal yesterday included Maj as well. Must have mis-read it.
  3. So now June 5 is the big day? Duck, I don't know you, but I haven't given this much of a shit about someone's career since my days of 5 minute e-mail refreshes during the 2014 VSP. I've said it before, but every time I come on here and see this thread at the top, I check it hoping for some good news for you, brother. Keep up the good fight.
  4. Is there a pencil patch for that? There's a red "Make Airlift Great Again" patch floating around. Wish I had one.
  5. OK, Huggy... what's your angle? Back to the U2?
  6. Nope. Thankfully I guess I haven't. An OST in my neck of the woods is: "Hey OG (first name), you good if we go to KXYZ and grab some lunch? They've got that NDB circle we all need in order to green up for the semi since the sim is down for some secret squirrel upgrade that we will never need at this base..." If he says no... then I guess I pick up the equivalent to a "green slip" and go non-current in July... for an NDB circle.
  7. A quad chart puts exponentially more information on your standard PowerPoint slide - which is vital for every off-station mission. Thank you, Col Owens for not letting that bit of queep die like it should have.
  8. Even with some pre-VSP exec stink on me, I had the same question. Quick Google search quickly defined that piece of stupidity for me. When multiple PPT slides are to much to digest in one sitting... So that's a thing now, huh?
  9. All nine made it home today...
  10. I know there are plenty of boys and girls from his two tours at CHS who are ready to do the same.
  11. That’s another way to counteract torque and p-factor. Rudder input is just too much work.
  12. Why are people in such a hurry to board a plane with assigned seats? Turns out you sit in the same spot whether you’re the first one or the last one to walk down the jet bridge. Now SWA is a different story...
  13. Duck, you're feeding the troll, bro. This type of discussion (heavy vs. fighter) is just like the mil vs. civ discussion that pops up over on APC once every 2 or 3 days. No one ever wins this argument.
  14. Jesus, boys! Same team!
  15. Promotion by attrition. I'm banking on it.
  16. Good. I hope they boot her ass out as well.
  17. You're using High Life for those beermosas, right? The champagne of beers is the only way to do it.
  18. Rough couple of days. Looks like the Corps lost a 53. https://www.stripes.com/news/us/4-feared-dead-in-marine-heavy-lift-helicopter-crash-in-california-1.520316
  19. They're probably just having difficulty divvying up the 179/365s amongst the new selects.
  20. If it’s not on JQP then it’s fake news.
  21. Cleaning rotaters is the #1 mission of the 8EAMS? I would have sworn it was sleeping on the sidewall seats while red X’s were left unattended.
  22. ^ This needs its own thread! Very comprehensive and sound advice. Like he said, wipe out the debt and plus up the savings account. It takes a few paychecks into your second year at an airline before you start to feel comfortable again. Oh yeah, and fuck TAPS. I’m an adult. Let me opt out.
  23. Yup, just what the brain trust at AMC needs. More white jets to let them spread their “all is well” message to the masses. Sorry, I have no useful information for you. Just been burning pay periods at the unit, so I’m balls-deep in the stupidity.
