    Feinstein to introduce AWB in January

    Like I said, they can't change the amendment so they'll legislate their way around it. They can't tell you "you can't have a gun", so just they just make it unreasonable and unattainable for everyone but themselves. And like I've said before, they people get the representation they deserve. The...

    Roommate wanted in Norfolk

    Take your time looking around up here. There are some very sketchy areas (like Norfolk in general) that look just fine on a craigslist or realtor's ad. Then you show up and it's a total mess. Downtown has some nice condos but they're gonna be 1100+ for a 1bd/1ba.

    Feinstein to introduce AWB in January

    Feinstein needs to jump back on her broom and go back to CA. Way to capitalize on someone's fear in order to troll for votes. Screw you Feinstein and Bloomberg.

    Instrument Rating prior to OCS

    I'd be willing to argue there's just over 100 years worth of great naval aviation info on here. ;)

    Instrument Rating prior to OCS

    Definitely not worth it. Take it upon yourself to download the instrument flying handbook and read that. The AIM chapter about instrument approaches is actually a decent read also if you want to get an idea of how VORs, Tacans, GPS, etc... work. The best thing you can do is let a good flight...

    Where you finish doesn't even really matter. That last part does though. As with all things, it's a little timing + hard work = wings.

    Do you use an iPad in the cockpit? Would you?

    I was looking at that yesterday. I wants it. Plus: I need more than the 16G that I've got. 64G mini would be clutch.

    Google is your friend. Marine Gouge has some good stuff. The barrons (?) book is great but you dont really have time to order it off of amazon.

    Not sure if I should envy you or be glad that I have my wings and I'm not back in your shoes again. :)

    2.99 GPA

    "Whole Person Concept". You have a 2.99 in Chem E. That's pretty damn good in my book. Actually I had a 2.98 in Elec Eng. I'm pretty sure the selection board will look at your app and be fully aware of the fact that a 2.99 in Chemical Engineering > a 3.5 in Poly Sci.

    Navy Hellcat to be pulled from Lake Michigan..

    I think the black eye to the Imperial Japanese Navy was when we pulled the other half of our Navy up from the bed of Pearl Harbor and went over there and sank everything they had. Ya know, back when the Navy was more concerned with killing bad guys than doing NKOs and being on the PC Patrol.

    Service member being an idiot

    It already takes 30-45 days to get paid for DITY move, 45 mins to get seen at Medical, and 4.5 hours to get someone from NMCI to answer the phone. Do you really want to argue that we oughta be letting Bob Marley run the show 'round these parts?

    Service member being an idiot

    Yeah let's ignore the fact that we have to piss test the whole damn Navy every 10 mins because one guy 70 years ago got a MOH. Officers not excluded from that statement either.

    NAVY Initial Flight Screening (IFS)

    It's ok man. I've heard AF people describe their IFS as a bit ridiculous too. IMO, the Navy IFS is how it should be: a few flights and a solo with some bookwork involved to make sure you really wanna fly before they start blowing $2000 a flight on you (at least) to train you.

    VT Checkrides for Biennial Flight Review?

    Very little stick time for the NFOs. I'm pretty sure theres no way youre getting a complex endorsement out of the NFO syllabus. When you check in with VT10, they can tell what you will and won't get. I'm guessing that you guys don't really get any ratings because you never get 'checked out' in...

    I agree, but ditching the blueberries would be a welcome change. I dont think I'll EVER stop hearing about how stupid those look. From other military and civilians alike.

    VT Checkrides for Biennial Flight Review?

    I took it about 36 hours ago. The questions on Marine Gouge were verbatim. They may have stopped publishing them, but it doesn't look like they changed them. :cool: Gotcha on the Embry Riddle thing.

    VT Checkrides for Biennial Flight Review?

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but why not just use the questions that are on Marinegouge.com? That's what I used and they were verbatim on the test. Also, this may be a stupid question, but just thinking out loud here. Does the T6B still count for the 'complex' signoff since the PMU...

    Primary on Monday

    Actually, I simply hung my head, cried, declared an emergency, and squawked 7700 because I, like most studs, am unable to NAV sans-GPS.

    Primary on Monday

    I wont argue that it is more capable than most fleet aircraft (which is sad) and will get you where you need to go, but I dont think I ever had a flight in RIs in the 57 where it didn't lose RAIM or otherwise 'shit the bed'.

    It has an FMS system. The TH57 has that same GPS (KLN-900)....and yes...it is a POS.

    I'm the same way. A lot of studs get into this "GPS is mo' betta" mindset and I never did that. To me, it's pretty damn easy to dial up a TACAN and do things the old fashioned way. Edit: That being said, the T-6 RI syllabus isn't really lacking and they DO teach "head rises/tail falls" across...
