Because the airfield isn't moving away from you.

ING brotha USAA's savings rates blow I have an ING savings at 3.5% that has no minimums and you can link external accounts to it. As of now, I set pretty much all my bill money to go to that before I have them paid from the account... thus, it's earning interest in the downtime. Lemme...

Agree 100% And just as a corrollary, if you are 100% into the "brainwashing" and "yut, err, oohrah, devil dog, motivator, nasty" type language all the damn time, you will not be the norm in the aviation community... go be a grunt if you want to get gay with that stuff.

Ya... you're ugly and you go slow, but hey, at least you're annoying as hell doing it. God I hate those things.

I see how it is, my money's not good enough for your "contributor" title.

.308 will be slightly cheaper ammo-wise, but ballistically, they are very similar. Rem 700 will do you well in either 308 or 30-06 and be a nice gun to keep forever. Winchester 70 is another (personally, I don't like the 70s ergos). If you're looking to spend a little less, but still have a...

1) You're an idiot of the highest order 2) The rioters being Muslim have about as much bearing on the situation in France as the fact that the majority of rioters in LA were Christian. This is not a religious struggle... it's a class struggle. Maybe if you bothered to learn the backstory or...

Yup... this is nothing more than LA 2.0 (or Watts..) Same circumstances, same result.

Where you'll be spending all your alone time?

"Magic Eraser" option in Photoshop will clear out white and make it transparent. Make sure to save it as a gif, since a jpeg can't have transparency.

Ruger 10/22 Cheap, reliable, literally thousands of mods you can rice it out with. Personally, I have a Marlin 881 I got for my 16th birthday that I love.

based on the numbers, I'd say all of them

OK... seriously, everytime someone asks about a aircraft/system/whatever, you don't need to post whatever you find on fas.org. There are plenty of people here from each community who know more about said system than fas does. We all know how to use google (though sometimes I doubt it).

calm down kid http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2005/09/googlebombing-failure.html

happy?

You forgot the option "Osprey AND bust"

Having never flown anything more than a Cessna or Cherokee prior to primary, I admit, I wanted jets based on the "cool" factors: go fast, drop bombs, pull g's, and go to the boat. Thus far, I've gotten to do all of that and have had a blast thankfully. But, I've always been curious as to what...

1stLt May needs to hurry up and get here so I can shed the Lt stigma :)

Galileo is intended to be non-encrypted (military-wise) and free for everyone (increased accuracy service available via upgrade). And since it uses far better clocks than the current gen GPS system, it will be FAR, FAR more accurate (4m regular, 1m upgraded commercial). Of course the US gov't...

In my defense, I didn't consider OCONUS with that remark :)

at the same time, can we ditch the "MODERATOR/SUPER MODERATOR" tags?

2008

We had a thread about this once... it's called "going down with the ship" ...and it's a SWO thing.

And when the EU gets Galileo up and running, that won't matter to anyone.

GPS devices are almost all solid-state... they care little about shock and perform fine in temperature extremes. Even my hand held Garmin is rated for 6g's and temps from 5-158F and that thing was only $200 ish. The military seems to have this real aversion to utilizing GPS to the utmost...

Once again, I get to use this gem.

Boy there are some paranoid, no self-confidence-having people here. I've never seen so many 'how many get dropped', or 'do I have a chance' type questions anywhere. You'll never know if you can do something till you try. So stop worrying about percentages and just do it. If you succeed, it...

And yes, NDB approaches are easy, but why does someone always have to come back with some "there I was in my 172, flying an NDB approach" in every IFR-related thread? And this is why they have GPS/INS.

why is it that anytime someone brings up IFR stuff, somebody has to point out how hard it is with an NDB? NEWSFLASH: If you're flying IFR with only an NDB, you're a fvcking moron.

"Life is tough. It's tougher (shorter) if you're stupid"

Quick Links -> Today's Posts roughly the same result as the older (better) View New Posts option but with more old stuff.

You're aware there are big system diagram foldouts in the back of the natops, aren't you?

Nothing. It's just as irrelevant as the French saving us during the Revolutionary War. Jesus man, there are plenty of reasons to dislike the French. Their defeat at the hands of the best army in the world at the time has virtually no bearing on modern politics. If you must, complain about...

so says the child of the 80s :icon_tong

There have been people anthro'd out of Harriers, but there are also pilots who run the gamut from very short to very tall.

uhm... they make tan boots with steel toes now

Oh I certainly admit to being an @ss in some posts. But it's typically on a user with a falling rep or on a thread that's been building up to it. I try to avoid being the new guy and slamming someone else out of the blue within the same month that I joined the site.

While you make somewhat of a valid point, there are two ways to present that point: the douchebag method and the non-douchebag method. You chose the former.

you could always try and pass primary first who knows, you could suck at flying and get helos (kidding)

QUATREFOIL you wear it... you should at least know how to pronounce it and spell it

I'm curious which mod undeleted all those posts I hosed in an attempt to defag this thread.

Oh ya... because OCS teaches such solid and varied tactics :rolleyes: "I'm up, he's sees me, I'm down" Just because you finished OCS, doesn't mean you're a grunt.

I tried that approach via PMs. He replied in what I thought was an understanding manner. I was wrong.

Ya, because listening to one egotistical blowhard jack@ss interview another is a fine way to garner good information.

Oh well thank you Mr. College Staffer for being so condescending and assuming that none of us keep up with current affairs just because we don't post about it online. I will be sure to post about every political, military, or social issue that I read about on a daily basis. Otherwise, I would...

...as well as the fact the Marine Corps seems to be the only people able to repeatedly conduct CAS w/o killing the Marines they're protecting. USAF, I'm looking in your direction.

Chase-Durer watches are rinky dink compared to Omega, Brietling, Rolex, or Tag. They are not even close. They look and feel cheesy, and their price reflects it.

Jesus. There's being pedantic and there's asking that others at least have a basic grasp of the language. This is a case of the latter.
