hm, i had no problem watching on my compy

the site is definitely "cool" as all get out, but i'm kind of disappointed that there isn't as much emphasis on the warrior ethos aspect that the academy is supposed to instill in its officers. that is to say, the videos are more about how the academy is a "unique college experience" (which...

also given a "newish" video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoscH0UV2ew

JustAMom for the win. you guys are way too easy to troll haha. but hey, no harm done, right? thanks for the laughs, EOTL out. peace.

Alright, you got me on the first one (fair and square) define frivolous. prove it the last one just made me laugh.

lol i never claimed to be in high school. that's the great thing about the internet. i COULD be in high school, or i could be in college, or jr. high, or a dropout, or active duty, or from a foreign country. i could be a male, or i could be a female. you'll never know for sure. what...

from the way i understand it, the WP cadets and midshipmen went on exchanges to USAFA and observed the first year experienced, then compared it to their own. the consensus was that militarily speaking USAFA first year is harder, and the other three years were easier (in the sense of...

after talking to several midshipmen, zoomies, and WP cadets, its interesting to find out that USAFA has the most mentally stressful and physically challenging first year -- agreed upon by all three groups! and yet, you still try to reduce USAFA down to some sort of country club run by...

:yllol::yllol::yllol::yllol::yllol::yllol: if you ever said this to a TI in real life he'd rip your throat out and tell you sound off anyways. i don't know where you are getting your facts, but to say that TI's act like that is just straight silly.

a buddy of mine a few months ago got denied T-38's (fighter/bomber track) in UPT. he was the 8th person out of 8 to want T-38's. the other 7 got them. doesn't seem exponentially greater to me. also, who goes into naval pilot training and DOESN'T want jets? i find it hard to believe that the...

there is reocurring discussions in DC about eliminating all the service academies, not just USAFA. the navy is not immune to major budget cuts either. also, you say the navy can do what the air force does. show me a video where a C-5 or Globemaster III is taking off (or landing, whichever)...

haha, okay i admit i was just having a bit of fun. to be frank, i think landing on carriers is downright awesome. its just i think the AF contributes way more to the airpower/air superiority mission than the navy (and the numbers support this statement), which IMO is what OVERALL makes it more...

LOL the Navy is getting their own unmanned planes. Navy "aviators" using those xbox controllers you spoke of is not an impossibility. and for the record, the AF UAV career field is going to stop putting its pilots through "real" pilot training, but rather a completely different course that is...

no...this is serious business. next year summer seminar is probably going to get scrubbed. the academy is sick of poor applicants and cadets fratting with the seminarees.

I don't think you guys have a chance...they're actually cancelling summer seminar due to budget cuts and the lack of quality applicants.

class rank of 1 is a little low...you might want to bump that up to 0

hey 4-smacks: down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down down i'm tired...autobeat: :yllol::yllol::yllol::yllol:

i don't know about Coast Guard, but i hear both Army and Navy exchange cadets admit that USAFA 4 deg year is harder than their plebe year. besides, the Coast Guard isn't even part of the military. it's just the peace corps for puddle-jumpers :yllol:

hey i was wondering how beneficial do you think that getting my instrument rating before UPT would be? i already have my PPL, and am considering getting my instrument rating this summer. money and time aren't really an issue, but it still a commitment and only one i am willing to make if it...
