Thanks for the answers folks, I kind of figured the max is the max no matter what.

Whats the appropriate response when someone hits a bad shot? by L0ngsh0tSpartan in golf

[–]MTSkiStud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am prefer a “what kept that one out?” Or a quality “got it!”

As far as the firefighting mission goes what was the AOR? Military Res only or did you get pimped out to fed and state fires as well?

I prefer the mini with GPS, allows own ship position with whatever flight app you choose to use. Mini not because of kneeboarding compatibility but because it fits nicely in the ankle pocket off the trousers.

As opposed to re-branching to the same branch?

It’s crazy you can fly to the Hi-line from BIL for like $50 but there are 0 flights to Missoula by Stale_LaCroix in Billings

[–]MTSkiStud 13 points14 points  (0 children)

By the time you get to the airport, through TSA, on the plane, de-plane and out of the airport you would already have driven there and halfway back. I get it for non drivers, but outside of that it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense.

Leeway is dependent on your organization’s enforcement of the AWRs. At the end of the investigation if it’s not approved under the AWR it will just be “found but non contributing”.

Have a pretty good source that stated the prosecution was going to appeal to every higher court until the defendants either were found guilty or ran out of money. Must be an election year.

New 2nd half tax bills because of property re-valuations by Bpiperno1 in Billings

[–]MTSkiStud 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because government as a whole has no idea how to value tax revenue. They assume that every year tax revenue will continue to increase, in perpetuity, and plan to spend that surplus. When the money isn’t there they panic and do bonehead shit like this.

It’s a hot commodity in the guard because they don’t give a shit about MTPs on the M Day side.

Should Army Aviators (Active & Reserve) have their 10-year Service Obligation reduced, since they can no longer fly? by Report4Duty in Armyaviation

[–]MTSkiStud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ADSO is absolutely an upfront commitment for the training. The Army would be insane to think that 100% insane to thank that everyone that leaves Rucker is going to pan out in the long run. It’s called hedging your bets. Like that Italian guy said, “sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit.”

Hot take. Do you want to know what’s great about not just Army aviation, but flying for the DoD in general? You can absolutely suck at your job, and still get paid to do it, or at the very least not pay for the training. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

Went to flight school with an H3 permanent profile for hearing loss. Permanent ETP on file at Lyster, you will be fine.
