    Principles of Helicopter Flight

    No, there's no helo stuff on the test. My fine friend squorch was just laughing because 65% of Naval Aviators by 2010 will be rotary wing. :) Gotta aim high though...let us know if you need any help. ~D

    Places to Live in Norfolk

    That's changed quite a bit. VA Beach is the largest resort town in the US. A 45 min. drive from corner to corner and you'll stay in Va Beach the entire time. Much less Navy now IMHO. With the encroachment, the entire populace has gone much more civilian. I lived 2 miles north of Oceana...

    MH-60R Sleds

    That's classic...typical narrow-minded POV from the CAG towards the 60H, F and R. We have other helos??? I digress. The MH-60R will not be towing anything. They'll have the dipping hardware that the 60F currently has, but nothing towed. The MH-60S is supposed to pick up the minehunting...

    Fairfield Lakes in Pcola?

    Yeah, because Whiting has been closed by the current CO...she can't afford any more students...but she's saving 14% by setting all the thermostats to 78 :) No really, I have no idea. Seems that PCS money has to be spent by OCT.

    The only first choice I've ever gotten in my career, all 5 yrs of it, has been aviation.

    Yeah, well, I wasn't there and I'm not about to Monday morning quarterback on what they all did and did not do. Either way...glad that they didn't break themselves or the aircraft and made it to fly another day.

    I hope to god that you weren't talking to me...and if you were, I didn't fly it...another HAC on our det did. As for punching charts...they did. AND they even did the 1000' hover above the LZ as per the SAR TACAID for determining Pa going into an LZ. They had the power. It was the downdraft...

    Ironman

    It's something to say, I've dedicated my time and effort into something. However, I don't feel that this would make a weak candidate stronger...so it's not going to be a big factor. I'm still impressed though. I've run a marathon and will again later this year, but that's it. Screw the...

    SNFO now or SNA later?

    Ask a mirror...watch your face when you say SNA and SNFO...that should tell you. However, turning down OCS could be looking a gift horse in the mouth (I never understood that phrase) if something doesn't go right/other opportunities arise...just thinking logically here.

    Plus, every aviator knows...it's not how cool you are flying...but how cool you SOUND flying. Oh...and laughing your @$$ off at ANYONE who says "TALLY" (tactical term for "enemy in sight") or "ROGER WILCO" (contradiction) is a plus too.

    NROTC College Program

    The longer you're in the college program, the better. I'd also look at the attrition rate, because at GT, the # of scholarships didn't change...the people who got them did. Example: 20 scholarship slots available/given to freshman and 20 show up for INDOC and then 3 decide by the end of the...
