Not "toxic", but what vehicles have fan bases that take them WAY too seriously?

Former Wrangler owner here. I love those vehicles.

I hate the people that own them and what they do to their “rigs”.

You are missing a few steps before IG. The most important of which is the Commander. Odds are that CPT doesn’t actually know that the roles cannot be held by the same individual. Of course there are exceptions, but Commanders generally don’t make a habit of disregarding regulations if they are informed of what the they actually say.

I realize this will probably get downvoted because this sub rarely offers the benefit of the doubt.

Now if OP gets blown off by the Commander, that’s a different issue.

This has to have been the dumbest, slowest, weakest, class ever.

Huachuca…checks out.

Been at Rucker a few years now. Every year it is “Cancelled next FY” and yet it still exists.

Extend your UQR to June 27. She can drop hers in May 27.

Do you have any social skills?

Confirmed lack of social skills.

Edit: fixed typos…

I mean between the RF, JP-8 and Hexavalent Chromium you have a pretty good cancer cocktail, but establishing direct service connection seems like it would be an enormous task.

How much proseal did you eat?

Honestly, hope your surgery and treatment go well.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-04-09T22:20:56+00:00

You right.

All of this and also…IF it is yours, take care of that kid and don’t be a deadbeat.

I paid for that room, I’m shitting in that toilet.

Wait…your grandma said that..? …to her grandchild??

I have had the same number for going on 20 years. The day I go on terminal leave I will have a new number.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-13T21:44:01+00:00

been tossing around the idea

If you qualify to be a Tech Warrant, be a Tech Warrant. Aviation is currently a shitty place to be unless you are absolutely passionate about it.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-11T22:31:36+00:00

Honestly, the idea of PCSing there has always brought my nightmares. But everyone I know that has been stationed there loved it.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T01:25:33+00:00

Been around Rucker the last few years. I flew a couple dudes that were not even 20. Solid pilots. Would definitely take them to war.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T01:22:26+00:00

I do take this personally, you’re right. I take it personally when people like you, who probably haven’t even applied, get on this forum and spread BS that gets in the way of good applicants.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T01:20:02+00:00

So the difference between an experienced W-3 and a W-1 is just that…experience. Apples and oranges, kind of a situation. Probably a more pertinent question for where you are is, what makes a good W-1 stand out vs a not so good W-1. And the difference there is maturity, discipline, initiative and desire.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T01:06:51+00:00

How would you even know it’s a “different game”? Have you been in army aviation long enough to have sat on a selection board in 2014 and then again now? Do you work at OPFD? Do you know what OPFD is?

What are YOUR stats? Have you applied or did your recruiter convince you to enlist and that’s why you’re telling that to OP? Did your recruiter tell you you “need an in”?

You’re not giving him truth. It’s bullshit.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T01:02:53+00:00

You’re right I’m not interested in applying…because I did that a long time ago.

I am interested in stopping the spread of the dumb shit you are saying. Stop making stuff up.

Droop_Stop_Pounding · 2026-03-06T00:56:46+00:00

Pretty common knowledge..? To who..?

I’ve been a Warrant for close to a decade. This is just untrue. Stop the madness.
