He also had little short T-Rex arms, so he had no real recourse short of throwing shit at me like a monkey.

I sat in an E-2 once and it was tight for me, how did you do it? I figure T-Rex arms would be at home in one.
That "...And" shit is contagious..
Never did it in 2000 hours of flying from Civ to VTs to HTs to RAG.. Flew with a HAC who did it.. Next thing you know the 2Ps are doing it to mock him, then we're doing it without realizing it.
Had a 3P fresh out of the RAG in VAW, who started that shit.. I hit him with the checklist every time he did it. Which was comical when flying FCLPS.
(non flying pilot in hummers does the traffic radios.. flying pilot is on squadron tac)
3p "Aaand 601, Abeam, Gear, 11.8, Bates"
THWAP.
MB "Stop that shit"
3P "nd 601 Hawkeye Ball, Heavy, Bates"
THWAP.
MB "Stop that shit, and that's why you have your energy state fixed on the start"
3p "Why"
MB "So you can smack 2Ps who make you sound like a fool at the boat and still get an OK"
Just skimmed through this since the O.P. was from a year or so ago, and noticed some talk from the FO side of the house...
I am about to wing in a few weeks out of SNA (BTW the M from what I understand was a Air Force idea) advanced. From what we hear we are told the day before or the day of winging who will be going P-8's but as of right now the slots are still very limited so it has been only 1 or 2 per class.
I had a student say roger wilco on the radio last week. I almost jumped out of the helo right there.
The five choices for dreamsheets in Corpus, at present:
Jacksonville - VP (P8)
Jacksonville - VP (P3)
Whidbey - VP
Whidbey - VQ
Hawaii - VP
Granted, the recommendation is to not put Jax P3, because if you get Jax you'll be going P8, at least under current understanding.
Granted, the recommendation is to not put Jax P3, because if you get Jax you'll be going P8, at least under current understanding. They will tell you P8/P3 at winging, not sure when you find out about VQ (maybe that means I didn't get it). There's still another selection a little after halfway through the RAG, so final assignment for P3 VP is still undefined until then.
