I completely agree. Gen X didn't get the same opportunity as the boomers but they sure as hell are doing their damndest to make sure no one else gets their scraps either.

Also, color me surprised that they cant corroborate Kavanaugh's sexual assault and that's the only thing they can pretend to care about. Not the endless lies to the Senate or the promise of vengeance.

Seriously. This country is allowing them to appoint a man to the highest court who genuinely said he'd get vengeance on his political opponents while he's there.

This is obviously aside from the absurdity of appointing a man who is a sexual predator. The fact that it's even remotely questionable that he may have sexually assaulted these women should be enough to bar him from appointment.

If I had any faith in the succdems I'd believe they'd get a house majority, whip out their subpoena dick and start helicoptering paperwork in every direction to actually investigate Kavanaugh then line up a crackerjack case for impeachment. Let the Republicans choke on voting no in the Senate, then pack the courts with the cover it all provides.

I have no such faith, so any sort of legislation that doesn't start and end with "make the 1% richer" for the next three or four decades is going to get the Supreme Court merry-go-round until it's ruled unconstitutional.

You know, there's supposedly a large portion of the republican party who disapproves of Trump and his antics - I have yet to meet one. Every republican I know is a fox news watching trump supporter.

The cult of personality that's built up around someone most normal people considered a laughingstock as recently as three years ago astounds and disgusts me.

They could shift a lot of it to Nellis, too. At least temporarily. There's already a large F22 footprint, and they have the space for other aircraft to support ABM training. Who knows, though.

Godholio posted:

This is being discussed, but it's a short-term sporadic bandaid at best. There's neither airspace, aircraft, or time during the day to really do it. The NTTR is being used almost constantly, often with multiple missions in different areas at the same time. I had no idea until I became a piece of this machine. ABM students simply can't control most of it either...it's air-to-surface attacks, Weapons School sorties (god help the WUGs flying), or stuff like that. Some stuff would work, and could probably be scheduled in between WS and Flag events, but it wouldn't be the daily access to missions a pipeline needs. But the Raptor students would have to fight for regular flights; they can do their work at a lot of other places with less hassle.

I'm not sure what kind of control facilities Holloman has, if any, but that would be one of the first things I'd look at. It can handle the F-22s, and it's got a decent airspace.

Oh, I know. I worked in scheduling for 3 of my years at the helo unit. And by that I mean I went to those godforsaken monthly range planning and allocation meetings. It was abysmal.

Like I said, it could work temporarily. But yes it would drastically affect all other training occurring there as well.

To be fair, it seems his intent is that you can't rely on the federal government or anyone else to do everything (including file your insurance claims) so you should probably be involved. At least that's how I read it.

WASHINGTON — A member of the California Air National Guard’s 144th Fighter Wing and a Ukrainian service member died in a Oct. 16 crash of an Ukrainian Su-27 aircraft flying in Ukraine’s Clear Sky exercise, the U.S. Air Force said Wednesday.

The U.S. airman was taking part in a single-aircraft familiarization flight with a Ukrainian pilot, and no other aircraft were involved in the incident, according to a news release put out by U.S. Air Forces Europe.

I would also note that they named this exercise the same name as the first sequel to S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
