    VFA-195 loses Hornet, pilot recovered

    It's working for me. Not that it says much more than what HJ already said...

    8 SEPT 2007 OCS Class

    Just an FYI, I work near Newark, NJ and fight traffic for 2 hours a day in NJ. For those of you mapquesting or googling directions from the South and West, it'll probably tell you to take the NJ Turnpike to I-80 across the George Washington Bridge and then get back on I-95. DO NOT DO THAT. The...

    Importance of Planning before a Flight

    Absolutely. Also important to start planning a trip to North Carolina. Sweet Jesus.

    8 SEPT 2007 OCS Class

    My orders are for NET 8 Sept, NLT 9 Sept. I'll be driving up on the 8th, it's only about 4 hours from where I'm at so it isn't too bad.

    Thanks & some advice for newbie's

    Nice job with the scores man! Just as an FYI, I'm working full-time and training for OCS at the same time. It does require a little sacrifice of your spare time (and sometimes sanity) but it won't be the last time you do that. I go to the gym before and after work (get to beat rush hour...

    WWII Airplane Factories

    This is the one situation were corporate greed is a good thing. You get enough lobbyists hammering away at politicians things happen. I know pride and human being lunacy can have an overriding power, but you can't fight a war when you can't feed your citizens.

    WWII Airplane Factories

    Global economies have almost put an end to that. Why would we want to go to war with people who make our goods at extremely low cost, and conversely why would people who make our goods want to bite the hand that feeds. Wars don't happen when they would destroy both sides.

    Im in Trouble Guys

    I started at 240 and I'm down to 180. An 18 minute mile and a half was descent for me as well. I'm under 11 minutes now. Not great, but it's better than 18. As lame as it sounds that "Fat Smash" diet worked for me to help bring the weight down. It's a tough diet, but if you want it bad enough...

    Thanks

    This one of course. Seriously, the threads in the required reading forum were real eye-openers. The ASTB gouge saved my bacon too.[/COLOR] Ah, yes. 9 or 10 depending on traffic. Kinda sad that we as a state can be categorized by one highway but whatever, there’s a lot sadder things going on...

    Thanks

    Thanks guys. I'm from all over Jersey Bubba. Grew up in Roxbury, went to school near Atlantic City and I'm just North of Trenton near Phillipsburg now. I got my PPL and fly into TTN a lot. Cool place, but sometimes you have to wake the controllers up if you fly in early enough on the weekends. :)

    Thanks

    Just wanted to say thank you to this forum. I've never posted before today, but I've searched this place to death leading up to my application. I received my final select for SNA and orders for OCS 8 September last week. So, call me a kissass if you must, but I figured I owed it to the regulars...

    LASER Strikes

    I have a job thanks to this idiot quitting a few months before this incident. The job is a basic office type thing and not related to aviation at all, but everyone here said he'd play with laser pointers all the time and convinced everyone he was a felony waiting to happen for other stuff he...
