Soooo.... Is it worth picking up a new set of AWG's when I fly over to Korea? Best tailor shop around but what's the deal with the uniform? Is it regulated to my closet?

So before I left for the Far East I saw an e-mail saying that we had some agreement with microsoft that enabled military members to get a copy of Microsoft Officer for about $15. Sadly I discovered that moving to the Far East also means losing saved e-mails and I lost all of the info about the...

I don't know about the F-35 but as for the rest, it's actually a physiological reason for the limitation. All about the human body. The F-18 seats are more vertical than the air force seats. The air force seats lean back a little more. The angle difference allows them to pull more overall...

Can you make something for the blackberry while you're at it?

I thought something didn't look quite right with that picture! Thanks for clearing it up.

Well unless I'm mistaken, all the T-34 students are in the back seat for their instrument flights with the IP up front. And if I remember right, the wx mins are pretty high for their normal flights. And the T-45 starts the same way with the stud in the back for the instruments. We didn't sit...

As long as they keep it in the airforce and stay away from the Navy...

It always amazes me how quickly threads can change topics on airwarriors...

Some guys at the hornet rag think that you're trying to hard if you're wearing the leather jacket. I was like seriously what the fuck? I have wings. Its cold. I'm wearing the fucking jacket.

Good book.

http://abcnews.go.com/Travel/BusinessTraveler/obese-passengers-fat-fat-fly-us-airline/story?id=9227535 Look here. Look at the picture that is complete and not cropped. The plane has not left the gate. People are still boarding and the luggage racks are still open. Amazing what a little...

Anyone else notice that The Ike is apparently embarked upon itself?

What is this paper you speak of? Does it have some connection with the magical internet? Google sees all. Google knows all.

Holy thread revival Batman! And WOFD stands for wave off foul deck.

How about we start a write in campaign?

Maybe we need a competition to see which is more lethal. 26.2 miles or 26.2 beers. Personally I think the run would be worse for your health.

Oh I am excited. But I'm also saddened at the fact that we went to the moon in the 1960's and have put aside so much of what we have learned that we have forgotten most of it. From the Kennedy speech to the first moon landing was seven years. Bush made his speech in 2004 with the goal of...

Solid fuel rockets can be designed with specific patterns to affect the surface area being burned. More area = more burn = more thrust. Create a shape that decreases the area at a certain time and you'll decrease the thrust and all that with it.

Not the T-45... Just ask the birds down in Kingsville.

They really need a better paint scheme...

Meh, that's when you hit the speed brakes, underrun, and finish by joining up smoothly right on the outside of the turn. Bonus points if you can canopy roll into position.

Free food but limited to an ever smaller slice of their menu. Not worth it. Only six things to choose from. Come on.

Or CV rendevous as the other term...

Proper etiquette says don't duck out on colors. If you're outside, don't sprint to make it inside. If you're out of your car, don't duck back in. Just don't duck out on colors. That's proper etiquette. Nothing wrong with sitting in a car if you're already there.

Man, I feel bad for your IP's.

Any word on the garrison cap wings? Are those going to be coming back or are we still waiting on that too?

Hmm, oops. Guess that's what happens when you wake up at 4 all week long and then peruse air warriors when you should be fast asleep at night... Long days... Is it the weekend yet?

http://www.forbes.com/feeds/afx/2009/10/07/afx6977215.html Link for you. And I like new super hornets.

Thank you! I was reading through this and hoping to see this. It's a height because it is fixed about a point. At x.x miles you will be at xxx' above touchdown.

Boat School, aka Canoe U, aka the Naval Academy, BS in aerospace engineering in 2006. Was it worth is? Sure. I had a blast. I don't think I missed out by not going to a regular college. The opportunities I had at the academy were priceless. How many other schools get to actually launch a...

Or just go with the no name tag look on the jacket. I kinda like that better.

Wait, things can take off past 2500 feet?!? Again? What'd you do this time?

Navy version of commercial flight. AKA they fly people from point A to point B instead of buying you a commercial ticket. Commands do it when they have a large number of people to send somewhere. Sometimes you get to ride on a giant 747. Sometimes you get stuck in the back of a C-130...

Best description ever!

As well as Nalo's from Lemoore and Oceana.

It's not that bad. Looks kinda cool. Besides, at least it doesn't look like a P-3...

So if hair is better at retaining info for drug abuse... Why can't I just give them a piece of my hair instead of trying to drink a gallon of water at last minute because some idiot forgot to tell me I had to do a urinalysis that day...

As long as its a flu shot and not the flu nasal spray... Who ever thought up that one needs to be shot. You have the taste of flu in your mouth for the next day...

I had to talk to ADP (the computer guys) at the squadron to get some software for the CAC reader. I'm not exactly sure what was on there, all I know is that I needed to run the program to be able to use the reader for the sites.

The sound of silence that filled the horse shoe was priceless.

What he said. Sharps, E-mail, EKM, BUPERS, Flight Wx Briefer... Those at least all work.

And you can get a CAC reader at the nex for around $30. It's actually pretty useful. Probably more so in the FRS than in advanced, but still useful.

I still think they should just build new T-34's. Primary didn't need anything fancier than that for the basics.

What's in the goodie bag?

And here I thought they were just gonna figure out a way to scoop up all the stuff we dump into it...

So do I have to give up my center-line tank just to fire a gun? I like my extra tank of gas while being able to fire the gun that I currently possess... I guess if the guns mounted below the fuselage like that you won't be firing with negative G's at all. Not that I'd ever want to go and do...

They should actually go with this idea. Since they have plenty of free time it wouldn't hurt for them to start off reading how everyone else fucked it up. Maybe a few of them wouldn't go and shoot birds thinking its fun that way... Then again the stupid ones would probably just go and get...

I'm interested in seeing that Packer Viking game... I don't know if I want my GB to go easy on the poor guy or not... Then again after reading Pill's posts, I don't give a damn. It's on. Kick the traitor's ass. The Vikings suck.

Just remember to actually change your residency before you go to PSD. Technically you should be living in Florida and be a resident before changing your state for tax purposes. I had some friends do it the other way around... They didn't get in trouble, but its not technically legal...
