Florida B.S. Thread

Most Orlando lifers would just as soon sit down for tea & crumpets with the taliban,,, then a table full of tourist

 

oh man jim, quote of the week.

 

Have to agree!

 

That sucks but I am glad it worked out, I have a friend that went SWCC and got medically dropped due to a knee injury at the end of his basic crewman training. I felt so bad for him, they tried rolling him back a few times but it just kept messing up.

 

Yup basically the same situation with me. Crushed my dream, but flight school isn't a bad deal. They run close to 100 miles a week so any injuries below the waist are pretty much damning.

 

100 mpw. I knew they ran a lot but that's crazy. US Navy sky 6 is a job.. What will you fly or do you know yet?

 

Yup. ~8 miles a day at minimum just to meals and back. Running to each evolution ~2-3 miles. Then a 4 mile timed run or 6-10 mile conditioning run. You're looking at ~15-20 a day.

Don't find out what I fly for another 18 months or so. Likely to be F/A-18s or H-60s.

 

dang, we were running 100 miles per week, training for cross country. and i can't imagine they have the same "high tech" running gear we were using

 

haha, lol, first time reading this, i've been too busy hanging out with our good friend 2009sr5, quote is actually kinda funny though, don't worry james, if it was me, i woulda left my name

 

Only the best lol

 

hello premature knee and hip replacements

 

Story of my life lol

 

What my Dr pal sent me when I asked him about the spider in my bath tub last week,

 

Sure has been quiet in here today.

 

U say u want to fly jets or helos but do u want to be on a ship your whole career? I would suggest the fixed wing p3/p8 community.

 

People have a real love hate relationship with the p3/p8 community. I'm assuming you fly the p3 or p8 out of Jacksonville? It wouldn't be the end of the world if I ended up there, but I'd really like to fly helos out of San Diego.

 

When the time comes ask for Fla.. They will send you to Cal.. Never ask for where you want to go..

 

Who doesn't want to fly a navy bomber? They really just want to hang out with us, even when on the job.

Who doesn't remember when they missed their target and almost took the group out?
