    Switching Services for Pilot Slot

    He's not on scholarship, but he still signed a contract and has a commitment to the AF.

    Switching Services for Pilot Slot

    It's my understanding that anyone post-field training is on scholarship and/or contract. Does the AF even allow you to switch without serving any of your active duty commitment? I can definitely understand your sentiments in wanting to switch.

    Blue Angels in Salinas, CA

    I second the Monterey recommendation. I drove through Salinas and stopped in Monterey overnight. Had some pretty amazing sushi and there's tons to do down there. Salinas...not so much. I'm surprised the Blues are stopping there.

    They're just a bit bigger than the wolf spiders we have up here in the NW, just man up and capture them as pets. :icon_wink

    13-Year-Old Suspended For Doodling Gun

    Ah the good old days of smear the queer. When I was going through grade school that game was still a norm - doubt it is now.

    Sweet avatar SQUID, I may have to buy that sign and put it on my dorm door for my ultra-hippie/liberal roommate to see. http://www.allposters.com/-sp/Hippies-Use-Back-Door-Posters_i1651506_.htm

    Stunt Plane down at NAS Oceana

    My thoughts exactly. Though to be fair, in the article cited by BigIron the fate of the pilot had not been announced. Condolences to his friends and family.

    Drug Smugglers beware

    Yeah, but the Pong Su was destroyed two years after the smuggling incident. It was essentially empty.

    Hawkeye down

    All three sound like they were great officers and pilots. They are in my thoughts.

    ? for jet pilots

    I went to Magic Mountain this summer and rode nearly every coaster. It's got nothing on CP.
  17. MattWSU

    ? for jet pilots

    Ditto on Cedar Point. Their "Top Thrill Dragster" coaster held the height record from like '04-'06. I rode it in '04 and the two-hour wait was well worth it. 0-120 in 4 seconds is incredible. Cedar Point also has the most roller coasters in the world, so if you're ever in Ohio, definitely stop...

    Wow, it was pretty corny. Sweet graphics but some retarded dialogue. Starscream and Optimus all the way.

    Why does some of the dialogue in there sound so much like a Westboro Baptist church member's crazy threats...

    Nrotc Cp

    I called the unit at my school and told them I was interested in joining CP. They directed me to their recruiting officer and he e-mailed me an application and forms for the physical. They said they get about 20 CP applicants every summer and take about five.

    Sounds like you have the one DC-10 pilot to thank for that.

    I'm going to WSU next year and doing UI crosstown. I might be able to answer your question.

    Best Cell Phone Coverage in Whidbey Island

    I don't live on Whidbey but over here across the Sound I get a lot of failed and dropped calls with Cingular. If you can, change to Verizon. Everyone I know who uses Verizon loves it and has zero problems.

    Crashed

    Get back on the horse...as everyone has said in here, things happen. I'm a senior in high school and got my PPL about a month ago. It wasn't easy. You'll run into hurdles like this all the time in your life. Sack up, and get back in the cockpit. I had an engine failure on my first solo...

    Crosstown NROTC

    I can't find many posts that describe the "Crosstown Experience". I'll be going to WSU next year (which doesn't have a unit) and am heavily considering being a crosstown College Programmer with the University of Idaho. What kind of experiences have any former or current crosstowners here had?

    SR-71 Manual

    I took my FAA practical with a former SR-71 RSO. The manual was on his shelf, that thing is so damn thick. Needless to say, not an easy grader, but I have my license and can't complain.

    Big Dilemma

    It's your decision, but if I were you I would work my ass off in the College Program and go for a three-year scholarship. And @ your last post, what makes you think you're in the position to offer them an ultimatum? That will just hurt your chances more. Get a grip.

    20 dead at Va Tech

    How do we know that the cops hunkered down outside with assault weapons weren't the secondary force securing the scene? There were no cameras on the inside and a primary team could very well have already breached the building. I say we shouldn't pass judgement until speculation becomes solid...

    Prowler Power

    I know you mentioned that video being "thrown together" in another thread. You have some awesome footage and good syncing with the music, I think it's great. Good choice with Plow by Sponge, really adds to the feeling.
