Why take your gear off at MEI? Crush a hot dog and an ice cream, tell junior to suck less, fire the plane back up and get the second x done.

Hospitalwoman. Shit. Still has man in it.

It's a waste of time. Next question. there are far more serious issues the FAA should spend their limited resources on.

Whew. Good thing we fixed that, because that's what was wrong with NOTAMs. Work to support pilots' mental health in a non-punitive fashion? Nah, fuck that. Let's make sure the wokescolds don't get their gender-neutral panties in a twist.

Aussies need to start digging their guns out of the walls and backyards they've been hidden away in.

At least one more of them. Still waiting on the presidential waiver for the EUA vaccine mandate, especially considering a federal judge just ruled they are not interchangeable and are legally distinct. I know my base's clinic doesn't have comirnaty available for shots.

it would be hilarious if the guard got called up and no one was there to answer.

I went into the wrong biz.

If there's ever an office that studies the readiness impacts of choking whilst gargling ballsacks, I hope you get assigned to it. It would be a perfect match for your apparent talents.

He also has a Nobel prize. Do you have one of those? Fauci espoused the idea that you could catch AIDS just by being around HIV+ people in the 80s and also inaccurately blamed the AIDS epidemic on Haitian immigrants, as long as we are using the benefit of hindsight to judge people's...

Ahhh...The Radisson at OAK. Nothing like the Oakland PD flipping a u turn with lights and sirens and the whole deal to tell a bunch of pilots walking to jack in the box to get their asses back to the hotel so they don't get murdered. I was always partial to new La Quintas when I was still...

Meth gets ya up and at em.

I forgot that even though they are doctors and are probably smart enough to fly, they don't know a single thing about flying. They're not even at a fam-1 level of proficiency.

MRNa gene therapy and MRNA tech, along with the lipid coating, has been in development for over 20 years. This is the first instance of using them for a vaccine.

Having hesitancy about what one person puts in their body does not equal being anti-vax. Plenty of people have every other shot known to man, but are leery of this shot. MRNA vaxxes haven't been around for very long. This vaccine was developed in record time. The manufacturers are immune to...

Don't forget how we (the people who do and oversee gain of function research and grants that fund it) changed the definition of gain of function by adding a comma in said definition. Since the research that caused Covid skipped over where the pause in the definition should have been, it...

Go fuck yourself. -a vaxxed airline pilot.

The world needs to hear your body of work. Don't hide your gifts.

Couple LGBs on MOA common today. Also, You've inspired me to start meowing on UHF guard, now.

Diesel runs the backup generators at the WIV. Diesel is COVID.

Good news: two new variants of anti-extremism and implicit bias training hit the streets today in the DOD. You're welcome for your freedom, America!

He is quite weak on the dangers of nuclear. He doesn't gloss over the engineering prowess required to reliably run a reactor, but he waves his hand at the risks and the costs and the determination required to make a large portion of a nation's power via the atom. I think he misses an...

Apocalypse Never covers this pretty well.

The RLA would have to be repealed for that, and the alternative to the RLA is the NLRA (I think?). Our contracts become amendable on the end date. There's no provision to strike as soon as the amendable date arrives. NLRA governed contracts have a hard end date; negotiations happen well prior...

Are you talking about a wholesale disruption of organized labor at the airlines? Unlikely to happen, even as stacked against unions as the RLA is. A national seniority list? Also very unlikely. The RLA is designed to encourage nearly endless negotiations. Airlines don't have to get rid of...

SWA pilots just really like to encourage people named Brandon.

Outside of every year's IGS, I have opened a GP maybe 6 times total in 14 years of flying. I have looked at an AP of any flavor...never.

Maybe China will wait to invade Taiwan til after we kick out 4% of the force. In other news, who could have seen this coming after fear mongering people into forced isolation the last two years...

Daniel and Marty are not pleased.

Casting is great, it definitely does the book justice. Spoiler: No Feyd Rautha in part one, so there's still a chance for Sting to reprise his role. I hope some of the side characters like Gurney and Thufir get some more screen time in part 2. Jason Momoa did a great job as Duncan. It'll be...

It was like a decade ago and took about 2 years to fulfill the order. I don't even know if Omega is still offering group buys.

I really need to send mine in.

What experiment was California running? Their rates of death/million are statistically similar to Idaho's.

Oooo that's a bingo.

The flu is contagious. The common cold is contagious. They could both put people in the hospital. Should we decline care to flu patients since they were too stupid to get scientists' best guess of which flu strains we need to vaccinate for? Are they automatically Very Bad People because they...

That's a nice straw man you've built there. Are you unable to see a pediatrician because an ICU somewhere else is at 94% capacity? Maybe you can't get your kids in to see a doctor because they fired 30% of their staff and support people for not wanting to get a vaccine.

You ever scuba dive, ski, snowboard, surf, play contact sports, ride motorcycles, rock climb, shoot or own firearms, speed while driving? All of those are statistically risky activities. Could you live with yourself if you got hurt doing one of those and it prevented or delayed a heart attack...

Good to know so many Americans are written off in your mind. The Balkanization of our country is complete. Time to break out the knock off track suits.

I'm still trying to figure out who gives a shit what a non-winged foreign rando on a naval aviation forum thinks. Enjoy your dystopian shit show.

If you absolutely must make turkey day with gamgam, you probably ought to drive. Merrican has the same deadline as SWA, and rumor is about 30% of their bubbas don't have their ouchie yet.

I like the conex box missile sponge idea. Maybe before we kick it off with China, we can repurpose some of our conex boxes laying around the desert into armor belts for our little crappy ships.

Talking like that will get you labeled a murderer.

Maybe lots of New Yorkers already had antibodies from getting torched last spring. Also, killing off your most vulnerable population tends to thin out the herd of potential delta victims.

You need to encourage Brandon out there in the islands, too.

Based on the quality of students in early contacts in primary, NIFE is doing the exact same job of preparing you for primary as API. That is to say, it does not.

Nope. Sentry and Stratus are both available to take flying.

Obviously.

Subscribe to my YouTube channel for more of my rants and don't forget to sign up for my chase sapphire platinum double black extra travelers card. You get 300 bubbabucks if you do.

Seatback entertainment is annoying. It's a waste of weight and money. Make convenient seatback tablet holders and put the power plug near the holder. Voila. Lemme tell you about all the other ways to make airlines better.

The hole in the masks cheese is not to scale, since we know that this virus spreads predominantly through aerosols and not via large droplets. The hole should be about 97% of the cheese, as though my kid folded it in half and ate everything but the rind. The hole in the vaccine slice should...
