SPEAR, SWORD, SABER are goddamned ridiculous.....don't ever glamorize it Matt. Not the pointy edge of the sword. Closer to the taint of the shaft.

Wink you're on pal. I'm into snooty craft brewed hoppy IPAs that are really expensive and the shots of Jameson or Patron silver. If yo pick up the tab, I'll meet you anywheres. As per the other folks I mentioned, I'd actually like to meet Brett and the other guys. I shouldn't have come off...

Douches on this forum I would definitely pour my can of Milwaukee's Best over their heads and wait to see what they would do: GED Ashley, R-LSO, and definitely that fucking tool that is still a punchline to a joke in the VF community, Renegade 1. You three have ruined this forum. Somehow I...

Go to spacecamp in Huntsville, AL and watch this movie because it helped my buddy Spud Webb get into the program.

Folks, I haven't posted in a while, but am looking to get rid of a few odds and ends. I purchased the John and Martha King DVD collection a few years ago when I was going for my CFI, but didn't watch a damn one. About 15 DVDs in all plus a butt ton of study manuals. Oriented towards CFI, but...

I don't know why this cracks me up so much.......

Peterson, whatever you do, don't get all hopped up on your Jesus juice and start shit with Disney cast members down in Orlando.... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2458971/Disney-cast-assaulted-drunk-Navy-pilot-Austin-DeVan-Hill.html

you know, sort of like those moron Ensigns from API a couple of years ago that were shooting terns and herons and sandpipers out on P-cola beach, (and now they're in the fleet).

And Xanax and diazepam and vodka are necessary for you to get in an airplane to get your confidence up.

I would have told the TSA pogues that you were a motherfucking naval aviator (candidate). :D

I lost my Old Man this past week to a long illness and I got word while I was flying King Airs out of the 'Stan. If it's all right with you mods, I would like to make a shameless plug for my friend Rob Larsen. His Dad,Lazer, Bob Larsen was a F-4 Marine instructor pilot with my Dad in Kingsville...

you're a fucking idiot......

only if you want to be a lawn dart pilot that wants to do dead stick landings (engine out) really well.....

What's with the insistence on getting your pics Kow? In all seriousness? Have you copyrighted them? Are you afraid someone is going to publish or take credit for them? You sort of put them out for the public's enjoyment on this site. They are nice.

formidable?

Is this really what these kids have to go through to get commissioned now??

He's around..... mainly at the "other" place......lurking.......

I always love the "what could have been" stories in aviation. I've heard from more than a few folks that have been there, done that, that this: http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/can-we-learn-something-from-the-defunct-a-7f-strikefig-1591155307 would have been the perfect platform for OEF/OIF...

And don't use your duckface selfie as your profile pic if you want to be taken seriously. Just trying to help. I actually look like my avatar, so I get to keep it.

It's OK Joslyn..... It can only amuse me too. Particularly when I may be the guy on your officer nomination board. Good luck, Joslyn.

Not to be a dick.....but here I go. Periods and commas are your friend!

My wife's cousin manages a little theater that is owned by George R. R. Martin. How about Top Gun II crossed with Game of Thrones? Game of Drones??

or go against a Swede Gotland or Aussie Collins or Japanese Oyashio and get the shit kicked out of you and you figure out what 3rd Flt and 7th Flt already knows.....

Sure.......

Go. Air. Force.

I can't hate on the French..... at least they have some balls to build a decent carrier. And they flew F-8s.

The two guys I know personally from the 2009-2010 team...Corky and Gopher, are two of the nicest, most humble guys I ever met and they were part of the air wing on my ship after they were part of the team.

yeah.... If HAL was still around, he could give you the straight skinny on the conversion factor and which companies honor it and which ones don't.

Nice horse ink.....heee!!!

I'd think you were a fucking idiot if I saw someone with tattooed wings at the beach.

^ What he said.... It would be better if you just got a room at an extended stay place.

For that matter, based on what I just saw at RIMPAC, the reserves will make just about anyone an O-5....

I wish there was a Sheppard stock IPO for the last few months I could have invested in with this many guys buying the study gouge.

ATWO sucks.......

^ what Pags said....

Funny. My buddy that is a Lucas Group recruiter turned full time reserve bum because he couldn't place anyone.......

BLUF.... any SWO with a pulse will pick up O-4. How many jumped ship that could have been eligible for this board years ago...

Yeah, and you have about 2 weeks to get your ATP written done before it gets recockulously difficult.....

How many of you out there still think the Navy gives a flying fuck about you?

don't forget to use the "0.3" factor when adding up your flight time. Part 61 allows you to count the time from engine start to taxi back to the ramp and shutdown at the end of your flight. Pays big dividends.

OP

^awesome........like I said, he is good dude that played the game well.

agreed..... he's a company man who is trying to get a star and is in an untenable situation that is not of his making... when HSL bubbas aren't taking the bonus, you know something has got to be royally fucked up.

I honestly don't know... I've been out for a couple years. I can tell you that the guys that were being groomed in my squadron in 05-06 have all punched or went FTS.

2 VP dudes on the list didn't select on the first look..... I suspect that the "draft" is real..... who is still in the pool?

and I kept the $$$

fuck it... I'm a contract King Air pilot now.

This... from Capt. "She-boy" (great American!) To the "Battle Hardened" LTs of Airwarriors: NAE Leadership, We are just under three months remaining on the "window" for our aviators to complete consideration for applying for what commonly has been called the department head bonus. First some...

I believe it's actually more like 100 hours, but yes. I just finished my BE-300 type and ATP check yesterday. It will say restricted until I get to 1500 hours as discussed earlier. I left ACDU with about 1150.
