There's a WOFT dude or two around here, but this is generally a Navy joint. Might wanna try here: http://www.kiowapilots.com

Leather Jackets = Money Loved the shot of the ENS with ~20 bombing missions under his belt. Incomprehensible to me, but awesome none the less.

It's safe to say iOS 5 is coming soon. Usually there's the developer event around this time of the year to preview, and it's released along with the new iPhones in July. Free update to everyone. Meanwhile, my roommate with a brand new Droid X has the previous version of Android. He probably...

But you did...

I'm probably doing the 32GB with 3G. Rather have and not need than need and not have.

New iPads are announced! http://www.apple.com/ipad/ Took all I had not to bust out the credit card this afternoon and spend my perdiem check before it comes. Just want to see what iOS 5 looks like. I think a lot of the cool new stuff will revolve around that. Only so much you can do with...

You're entitled to the 4 (I think?) days of travel. Checking in early will limit the money the govt is giving you to travel. However, getting to Corpus early and staying with a buddy while you house/apartment shop might be a decent idea. Check in on the day they give you on your orders at the...

Welcome to the Navy, where buying plane tickets early will always cause you to get extended, and waiting until the last minute when prices are highest results in ops normal.

He's waiting in Corpus. Killing time on AW? Yeah, we all did that.

A puppy just died...

Got mine the day before graduation. It happens.

Over zealous Falcon 4.0 guy?

Seconded. Perdido wasn't that nice and there was nothing closeby worth going to. Unless you count a 15 min drive to Florabama "close"

^^ js?

Back to the Wing with you...

My only suggestion is Handy Lunch. Awesome place for breakfast. I gotta say, Newps was a beautiful town when I got out and about. That being said, I spent as little time there as humanly possible. After graduation, I ate lunch at the Brick Pizza place and then hauled ass outta town.

Equally shitty as the other three. RE: MBA Programs I've said it here before, but I'll reiterate. I used to work for General Electric. We were told from day one about MBAs: There are "Real" MBAs from a ranked and rated programs and there are "Check in the Box" MBAs from everywhere else...

Aren't you single now?

Considering the the late night choices are IHOP, Dennys, or Wafflehouse at 3am (in the South), not a bad choice. But it's really a "Which sucks least?" question.

Red shoes? Awesome

Anyone else hear VADM Fox's comments? One of the pirates was dispatched with a knife by a SF operator. Wow...

Yup, it replaces almost all the working uniforms including wash khaki (aka working khaki), SWOveralls, and, most sadly, Aviation Working Greens. Your standard uniform fare for aviation will be flight suits 95% of the time (and related gear to include Nomex Jacket, Leather Jacket, and some of...

Repost, but my point still stands. http://www.airwarriors.com/forum/showthread.php/154963-Old-Schoolers-Tee-Off!!?

^^ Magic Schoolbus reference?

wtf?

That does kind of suck. However, considering the pressure SNAs have been at API academics wise, I don't blame him for not purposely tanking a few questions to hook this dude up. What if he miscalculates and ends up on the outside looking in?

It ebbs and flows so variable is a good answer. I had a week notice that I was going to Corpus, told I would have no time off once I got here. Then I was at TW-4 for 4 weeks.

Myself and 2 others got out dinner tab picked up by someone, plus a free bottle of champagne from some folks at a bar later.

You can drive it there and park it while you're at training. You won't be able to use it while in training for the first 8ish weeks. If you get authorized off base liberty, usually POV use is acceptable then. I recommend Providence or Boston as the chance of seeing instructors/staff is...

Met some UPT dudes in Austin one weekend. They ask: "Hey, when's your graduation date?" Me: "Uh, what's that?"

Not gonna lie, the IRST stuff looked pretty gucci.

Neat stuff that Boeing is putting on the international market. Maybe it will come to the Navy?

Re: OBannon Hall. Pretty sure I saw a picture of it being torn down on Facebook with a bunch of excited/Moto/Yut comments from my Marine buddies. To the OP: Good luck and hope things work out well for you. Aviator life is pretty good.

^^ That's awesome.

Careful, you're moving into uber-motard brown nosing territory...

Trust me, YMMV throughout the TRACOM. Even within squadrons, there will be people who are about to complete and others in their same class still in Contacts. It happens. Edit, to add to the above, just show up when you're told and be prepared. Everything else is out of your hands.

2 weeks sounds about right. I got mine the day I was leaving, but I'm special. Not in a good way. Make sure you stay in contact with you OR throughout the process.

Welcome aboard! You brother was a Prior-E bubblehead before going Army officer? An odd combination there (Army O-6 with Silver Dolphins and Deterrent Patrol Pin), but probably a pretty cool story...

You can request an accelerated syllabus in Primary too, but I'd say you'd be stupid to do that. Don't hide your flight time, but no one can make you take the accelerated.

^^ Tasking via AW. Check that one off your list...

It's next to impossible to attrite for swim. If you are struggling, you go on swim hold and you get to fix it. Study however much you need to (everyone is different, the numbers they throw out are rough guidelines), put in the effort, and things will work out.

Wow. That's almost impossible. ASVAB is out of 100 like a somewhat normal test. ASTB is based on a bell curve, with 50 being the mean score. I got a 66 and that was like 95th Percentile.

Welcome to the party. Don't suck.

^^ Awesome advice. I'm renting as I go through the land of Orange and White (aka flight school). Depending on where I end up platform wise, I plan on getting a house during the FRS/Fleet Tour. Whatever you do, get to know an area and get gouged up before making a big commitment. Some...

If anyone reading this either threw up in their mouth or wanted to club a baby seal in anger, congrats. You're a normal, functional human.

Your attempt at humor/sarcasm might have been misunderstood. Try adding emoticons!

Go to Janey Holley tax collector on the main drive into NAS PCola (next to the WalMart). Bring orders, a lease and utility bill showing residency there. You'll get your Drivers License, register to vote, etc. Bring your FL DL to admin at NASC and fill out form to change your state of...

Echo what OU said. Be flexible and explain to her to be the same.
