    split from USMC aviation/introduction

    "As a maintaner, I could care less if I downed his plane during launches or not. If the guy was a prick to me previously, I would go out of my way to ensure his plane would get downed." Don't think anyone likes as#$oles, but you better hope noone finds out who you are, theres no excuse for that.

    Gov. Bush Vetoes `Road Rage' Bill

    Personally I like most NY drivers, they get the picture, and get out of the way when you come up fast behind them, and traffic moves fast when possible. (most of the time) but all agressive (good thing)

    I would like to do this, have been thinking about it for awhile. How does VA loan gaurentee and credit rating work into this. I think you can only use it on one property at at a time, and it has to be your prim residence. So you would prob use it while you live there and then refinance with...

    New Classroom @ OCS

    The new buliding did look a lot better than the supply shed they had us working out of, new candidates are going soft! Floors? we didn't need no stinking floors! we had cracked dust for floors. If you kept sweeping you would only get more dust and dirt.

    Lasik or Lasek

    LASEK is good to go, and although no one here needs to know because we should be getting custom PRK/LASEK: The former is wrong on LASIK, there are no holes drilled and it does not remove any more tissue than PRK. LASIK cuts 1/3 of the cornea and esentially does PRK under this flap. The flap...

    "Clashing Military Cultures"

    I wanted to be sympathetic, so I said, "Well, you're flying some very old aircraft." Davis, a taut, no-nonsense Marine, looked me in the eye and said, "They may be old, but they're good. That's no excuse." This is fine, if the gear works, good to go...... Meanwhile, Marine aviators...

    So many flight slots....why?

    Just curious, why are there so many flight slots, a third or more in rescent ocs/tbs classes. Anyone have anything more indepth than 'they need pilots'? My question is why. Thanks

    Custom vs Conventional

    uuuummmmm yea, find this out....does your dr have the capability to do custom? my guess is he doesn't have the equiptment and doesn't want to spend a lot of money for it. Custom corrects higher aberations which everyone has, you could have 20 20 and get custom and you might get 20 15, custom...

    OCC Flight Contract

    They are giving out flight contracts like candy now. You should be ok with 250 or better, so you are doing fine. If you are all around decent you should be ok. Most OCC is not enlisted. I don't know what it'll be like when you get in shape, but thats the story now. 2nd lt @ TBS w/ Air contract

    PRK Questions

    it gets worse because you can see clearly without the epithilium, but then it starts to grow back, as it does it's never perfect even and instantaneous, so it gets in the way. When its done healing its just like your epithilium before surgery, so you can see through it. Think of it like...
