    COVID-19

    The Riots here in the Netherlands have nothing to do with the curfew per se. There are just unhappy blokes with way too much spare time, bored to death and searching for a reason to start riots. Looting and vandalism has nothing to do with the principal rights of protest. Only 5-10% are rioters...

    A good officer and a good husband?

    I spent 20 years active duty in various squadrons, married with children. Now that I am out and working for a Civil Aviation consultancy (lots of International travel included) my divorce was signed last month... In or out, it doesn't matter, it's the people involved that make it work (or not).

    The Great Flight Jacket Thread (wearing/buying Leather, NOMEX, WEP jackets/patches)

    Www.mardonco.com is specialized in USAF nametags,however they carry some other designs as well. Just drop them a mail and see what they can do for you. They are very communicative so they even may direct you in the right direction if they can't help you out.

    A very attractive woman goes up to the bar. She gestures alluringly to the bartender, who comes over immediately. When he arrives, she seductively signals that he should bring his face closer to hers. When he does so, she begins to gently caress his full beard. "Are you the manager?" she asks...
