Well that can be fixed...

Hell, a search of the site for manatee has 5 pages of results! Why should he have to filter through all of those pages? Just type up a short summary (no more than 3 pages) and shoot it to him in a pm.

Former Viking pilot & all around good American. Glad to see some good Viking guys making it in their new community.

https://fedex.pilotcredentials.com/ Fill out your profile, pay $75 & you have applied/registered at FedEx. They do ask for when you will be available. You can update your availability date as things change. Looks like I'm going to have to start over with them. My first class medical is...

Interesting note. I got an email from FedEx today. Said their pilot Profile site was back up & they wanted me to update my profile. I'm going to update, but I won't be available for a while. My bonus goes for another year & I'm rolling this summer. That will take me to 16, so I might as well...

I'm at 13 years, 6 deployments down. Plenty of time away. Looking forward, I've probably got a good 4 years until I have to think a out deploying again.

Mumbles - sorry you lost a great Leader. Hope for the crew the deployment goes well in spite of this. The douche-nozzle who sold out their CO (circumventing all chains of command in the process) sold their soul with it. I sure don't want to serve with that person in my Navy.

Well, now the Capt has been "temporarily" relieved of command. http://abcnews.go.com/m/story?id=12530595&sid=77 I was on that cruise. I never saw XO movie night (COD guy, not spending the night) but heard about the "great shows" and never heard a complaint. NPR actually has an interesting...

But what about this from the Washington Times? http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2010/dec/27/china-deploying-carrier-sinking-ballistic-missile/

Wherever you are on your shore tour is probably undermanned, or is nearly so. You may have a hard time convincing the CO to let you go transition then. so if you wait until late in your shore tour, your timing is now bad. I also think waiting for your shore tour will make your timing...

Not visible on my iPhone or iPad. Works fine on the Mac. Other than that, great to have! Thanks!

The thread was deleted because you asked the question in more than one place. If we were really trying to censor you, this posting of the question would be gone too. You would have also gotten a warning about it. The mod who deleted your thread was just keeping an orderly forum.

The TSA attempts to make a secure passenger cabin, but a secure aircraft? No. They would have to screen all the cargo for that to be possible. How about the service/catering personnel? Screened? Many in my observation are immigrants. Did we really do a thorough background check on them?

Your thoughts are so unrealistic, I don't even know where to begin... How in the world would you ever implement something like this?! You either allow people to come out or you don't. You can have this command is a DADT tell command & that one is an 'out' command.

Along the same vein as Make Vapes spoke about, being a new transition at the DH level wouldn't work so well either. You don't want to compete as a nugget DH against the Level IV/V Strike Lead DH. Realistically, the earlier in your career, the better. The front office needs to support you, so...

I would recommend to the generic situation that a transfer in the last months of you first sea tour is best. This will give you time to go through the new FRS & have a full super JO tour. That way, you will be as qualified in model as the next guy for the O-4/DH look. Your time in the first...

13 speeding tickets when I applied...I guess I wrote a good letter of explanation. Of course that was in 1997. :)

No sweat Chief! I just don't want someone to log onto their NMCI & surf on over to wikileaks. Probably would cause some ruffled feathers.

For those interested in visiting wikileaks, I refer you to DoD guidance on the subject.

Reports in the new are that most backscatter machines were shut down for today. If that is so, didn't the TSA just show that they aren't required? Or did they decide to compromise on the security of air travel in the name of expediency?

My wife & kids will not be flying on an airline for the forseeable future. Anyone in San Diego want to partner in a GA airplane?

Hell yeah! I'd go watch the game! GO STATE!

I currently fly both the 4 & 8 Blade COD's. Love the 8 blade. I fly the 4 blade because I have to maintain proficiency... Of course, we have the CNS/ATM with the NP2K. Makes for a sweet ride. I understand what MB doesn't like about the NP2K, but with those flaws, I still find it to be quite...

But that's a six blade!

Here is what I did today...

I've got MobileMe & I like it. Synchs all my contacts & calendars between my laptop, iPad & iPhone. It also has online storage that I can save files to and access anywhere. Comes in handy Being able to open a reference from the phone.

Maybe something like this... Thars an S-2, now to find a C-1 with the same paint scheme to sell it.

The AT&T unlimited plan stopped being offered earlier this year. Fortunatly, I got my iPad the day prior!

I'm supposed to come up with the Centennial paint scheme for a COD. problem is, it's pretty vintage already. Maybe we'll go with the Corsair scheme...

I've heard enough bad stories about this Ed Rush to want to not recommend it to anyone. Is there anyone out there who thinks this program is the "greatest"?

COD's & E-2's don't go to MIL on touchdown. The beauty of instantaneous power...

NATOPS quails, Instrument chacks are annual, a night trap is good for 7, day for 14, FCLP's will get you 10...

I've got every document a COD guy could need on deployment on my iPad and also uploaded to my mobile me site. The mobile me means I can access it from any Internet connection; I.E. My iPhone, FBO computers, Thai Internet cafe's...

10,000# of whatever crap the suppo has ordered!

It's pretty amazing what approaches we can (in theory) shoot in the COD. ADF, VOR, TACAN, ILS, RNAV, AACS, ACLS. It's like they want us to able to go anywhere in the world...

Because they prove to not be aerodynamically suitable. (is that a word?!)

I can fly RNP approaches in my new, gee-whiz Lot-4 COD. So now I also believe hell is a winter wonderland and pigs can fly... I even have heard the P-3 is getting CNS/ATM compliant. Maybe we CAN make 2015!

I'm planning on bringing my crew on Sat.

The C-2 community still uses the term. However, with the 8-blade COD the bucket got a lot smaller.

I've heard it at every overseas airport I've flown from. We are just Changing to the international standard. A whole lotta nothing really. And a repost...

Fail Sorry, that link is for Hook '09. Watch Tailhook.org, I'm sure they are working on this years summary.

See it for yourself! <-- LINK (new color scheme makes it hard to tell) Video of the Flag panel is available on the page.

We don't fly with chutes in the COD unless it's an FCF, so ditch is commonly trained maneuver. Assuming you've got a bit of altitude, you get on a airstart profile of 150-160 KIAS, and open the ditching hatches. Passing 1K AGL, stop relight attempts and focus on the ditch. I maintain my...

Blurry, double vision will make the sale easier I bet!

I'm guessing attendance is going to be taking a hit with the canx of several of the airlifts...

^^^ need that. Must have it. CO doesn't buy the "he's in a sim" anymore...

My wife's name isn't on our car titles or mortgages for this very reason! I don't know if VA will buy you making the change now, but it's worth a shot!

I want one & now I'm too late? I guess I am now stuck with the 'used' market?
