I went with the flag and nametag patches from Tipsy Gypsy... Quality work and great customer service. Received them a couple days ago... Anyone have somebody they'd recommend in the Whidbey area to do the sewing? If not I'll start calling around tailors/leather shops...

The picture of the Goshawks in the hangar.... I noticed there's an 'E' on one of them... I'm only familiar with A: Trawing 1 and B: Trawing 2. Where's it from?

I'm not really sure what you're talking about.... Their website has the 172 for $85/hr wet. It doesn't look like they even have a 152... Please explain....

Awesome pictures Crowbar! Can't wait to get up there. Paddles, what complaints did you have about the club?

Just selected Prowlers out of advanced down here in K'rock, and am psyched to get back home to the Pacific Northwest and get flying again. I was looking in to getting back into general aviation in the meantime (not classing up for a while), and have been looking around in the Puget Sound area...

I didn't think that the Navy would pay for a trailer rental... I'm going to be renting a U-Haul and a car-carriage trailer for the back of it (to haul my POV with me). From what I understand, the navy won't compensate me at all for this tow-behind trailer. Anyone have any knowledges on this?

I'm guessing that whatever it was, it involved your right hand and a jumbo sized bottle of Jergens lavender-scented hand lotion.... :)

$600 for a rubber band? That is absolutely ridiculous. I can understand spending a few grand on a finely engineered timepiece, but there is no way in hell a rubber band should cost $600, I don't care who it's made by.

I had seasonal allergies during my NAMI visit back in OCS. I told them about it. They'll probably X-Ray your sinuses and prescribe you claritin (that's what happened in my case). No biggie, and fairly common from what I understand.

Are you suggesting that you bought the watch from a gay man?

I think the only unfortunate part of this whole situation is that there ended up being children in the van. I highly doubt if they'd been seen, the apache would have still fired. With that being said, it's an ugly but largely unavoidable part of war.

Great stuff... +1

Although it is pretty much universally advised to stay single during flight school, take it with a grain of salt. It reminds me of back in high school when everyone preached abstinence as the only logical method of birth control. Let's be realistic: People are going to screw, and people are...

I'm not a rocket surgeon or anything, but I have a feeling it would take a pack of amateurs more than a few weekends to restore an aircraft.

That is completely disgusting.

I echo Rg9's thoughts... I just wanted to throw a little my .02 in here too... One thing to definitely disregard that you may hear from some is: "Well, if you don't know whether to join the Navy or Marines, then Marines aren't for you." or similarly put, "If the Marines are for you...

That's why I do my hunting here: Why? It's cheaper. The meat tastes better. I don't have to gut it. I don't have to haul it. Hunting just seems like a lot of unnecessary work. I don't think I'll ever quite understand it. :D

I think it was... That'd have to be one damn good photoshop job.

I was just going to say I'd like to see the same tests with hollow point rounds... That's the only thing i'd be using for home defense anyhow.

:eek:

I don't think you really need facial hair when you CQ.... Just balls of steel. :D

I think amounts you owe fall under debt to income ratio, like I said before...

$5 million for a SU-27? Why have we been spending $25+ million for the T-45C??

Oh snap.

Orange? You mean blazzzzzzzze.

Every time I talk to my family and old friends from college and high school, they, for the most part, always tell me how lucky I am to have such a secure job/source of income... But for some reason I never quite feel it's that secure... Really just reinforces how 'bad' the times are, when...

Now those that watch this stuff on C-span please enlighten me..... WTF is this and please tell me this is not common place... If it is, god help us.

Allegedly it is a good way to clean up after a corpse as well....:icon_smil

wtf?

Anything to piss the SWOS off, and you better believe it would!

Is that you busybee? or is that just the flight suit you were talking about.

Spekkio, First off, I realized that I stole your avatar. My bad, but I'm not changing it :). In my experience with rewards cards, I'd go with an airline rewards card that you frequently fly. These usually have the best return IMO. I have an Alaska Airlines platinum card that I pay...

Carrying a balance is indeed bad for your wallet, but it certainly isn't bad for your score. Having more debt influences your debt to income ratio, possibly making it harder to borrow more money, but it doesn't affect your score in any way. Making a late payment may influence your score...

Hmm... I think it's from when the wheels lift off to when they make the "Skuuuurt skurrrt" noise upon landing. I remember for CQ being told to log it all as one flight (departure from Cecil, to back to Cecil several hours later), even though it involved a good amount of time sitting on the...

I'd imagine it wouldn't be too difficult... Just bring a handheld GPS with you and mark all the points that you kill em at... Drive around with a truck and collect.

Is what he REALLY means is: I'm a Marine, so I don't read books, unless of course they are picture books, pop up books, or Maxim.

I burned a full month of leave after OCS just so I wouldn't lose it....It pays to be a BDCPer. In fact, I have so many boxes of used leave chits laying around that I've started using them as toilet paper. :D For all that are drowning in negative leave, there is hope... You'll accumlate a...

We'll tell you when you're older :icon_wink

Good stuff.. :D

How do you figure?

WTF is IP? Pro-Rec for IP?

It certainly can... Had a dumbass friend back home in High School that threw boiling water on their windshield.... Didn't work out too well. I think you'd mitigate the risk by using 'luke warm' water, but still, gotta be careful.

The phenomenon explained: http://library.thinkquest.org/C008537/cool/freeze/freeze.html

Solid advice.

I would recommend doing the opposite of what CUPike said.:D It worked out well for me... When I was in high school I was talking to my officer recruiter and asking questions like: What are the most competitive college degrees for the flight program? Recruiter told me that...

Point taken.

True. I just don't think that the PPL won't sway a selection board.. It seems, at the very least, it would be a good tiebreaker or hold some weight. I'm not an all knowing, powerful selection board guru... But if I were and I saw a couple somewhat 'equal' applicants, one with a PPL and one...

I disagree with this sir. I applied for my flight slot and got turned down 3 times. Each time I 'improved' my package in different ways... Raised my GPA, joined clubs, took up leadership positions, etc. When I applied the fourth time (was selected), the only difference between that and the...
