Post Radical initially responded to:
So you are saying that a warrant can't be successful as a strike lead? After all, Army warrants do nothing but fly from point A to point B in Apaches because they don't have a college degree...Or is it their lack of intelligence and/or dedicated work ethic because there is no way to tell if a warrant has either without a degree?
Reread your own poorly written post and understand why the comment about the Aussies was brought up in the first place. I bet you won't. You'll just vomit out a very intelligent comeback of profanities to all who dare disagree with your opinion....reminds me of the quintessential liberal.
Cheers.
1. You don't even know what an airwing strike lead is. Do some research and then you can come at me.
2. I am saying if you take 100 people and put them into a pilot syllabus, and 50 of them have a degree, and 50 of them don't, the 50 that do will statistically do better. The same way that if you take the 50 that have a degree, and split those up into 25 that played sports (or lots of video games) growing up, and 25 that just read books, the 25 with the hand-eye coordination will do better than those that just read books. If we aren't currently hurting to find 25 guys that have a degree, and have hand-eye coordination, then why fix a problem that isn't there. The Navy doesn't currently have an accession problem. Who cares how the Aussies do it? When we can't fill our minimum quotas then we can look at reducing the requirements.
3. I did re-read my post. Please tell me where my post is poorly written.
4. Since you don't seem to get the idea: There are different levels of difficulty to Naval Aviation. There is much less task loading put on a guy flying a C-40 from Oceana to Fallon than there is on a one as part of a Large Force Strike. Maybe there are specific areas where the FWO would work, but then again, if you have enough guys who are more qualified then why even try?
5. I don't vomit profanities to all who disagree, just the Retarded Douche. I remind you of a quintessential liberal? You are high my friend. I knew they approved medical marijuana in Florida but I didn't think it was OK to smoke while in the military.
