That changed a long time ago. Pilots in every military branch can wear glasses as long as it’s correctable to 20/20. A few other stipulations as well. This includes even before beginning flight training. If your eyes deteriorate after flight training the standards are even more lax
I think the Navy was actually the first to start allowing glasses and that was more than 30 years ago. The other services followed later.
Yeah, we probably are looking at it from different angles. To me, getting to the x-ray machine quicker is all that matters. Taking off shoes and pulling out a laptop doesn’t bug me much if i got skip the long line. But I get that for others, the pre check lane is valuable for the whole shoes and laptops hassle.
^ That is the way to go. It’s not usually found on their website but Google turns up the link and it still works as of a couple weeks ago when there was another thread about Clear. Best part is that it works instantly after sign up. No need for a separate trip to the airport or a long waiting period. And in busy times Clear is way faster than Pre Check.
Christ man. I think I speak for every reader of the thread when I say we were expecting something different. I mean, spoilering it was a good start, but maybe alert us that it’s going to be a naked octogenarian man so we know not to open it.
I bet if you let any member of your family near it for any amount of time it will quickly be separated from the RV. One less thing to break later. If that fails roll it up onto the roof and look for a low bridge.
Do you really think it would mean that?
Is there a cause and effect relationship here that only you can see but are unable to explain to anyone?
Nobody here is accusing you of being an idiot because of what you would or would not trade in some alternate imaginary world. We think you’re an idiot because you keep insisting that two unrelated things are in fact dependent on each other.
Your argument is akin to Cliff Clavin’s final answer on Jeopardy, only less witty.
Lot's of us do. It's primarily known as a nice place to take a shit on road trips. Doesn't mean I'd brag about getting one on the Drag, but it does mean it fits right in at college station.
Every scene with any dialogue with a person in a military uniform was completely fucking stupid and cringy. Loved every second of it though. Will see it again with my other kid soon.
And JC… fuuuuuck. What else is there to say about her?
You may have already talked about it upthread but what’s your pilot situation on that? Got some young guy building time? Older retired guy? Airlines are snapping up anyone with a pulse, can’t be easy to find someone right now I’d think. Or did I miss it and you fly it?
I never park at the city parking lot, but Park n Zoom does valet. I’ve tried every one of the third-party parking lots and park n zoom is consistently the best service and fastest.
I'm holding off on a new truck until they come out with the new Tacoma design, in 2024 most likely. But I was reading up on the Pro vs OR recently and it didn't sound like there were enough upgrades to justify $10k. It's mostly suspension upgrades on a system that was already very capable. You could likely upgrade an OR version to similar specs with after-market stuff for way less. Plus, I want a long bed and they don't offer that in the Pro.
That's pretty much the newer version of the one I bought 16 years ago. 260,000 and still going. The kid who was an infant when I bought it is roaming around town and probably getting into some mischief in it as we speak.
That is fucking outstanding! "There are lots of newhires your age."
Old colonels look at me like I'm nuts when I'm giving away trips and living on 80 a month at max days off while they work 5-6 days week hustling for 160+ to pay for the ex-wives. Note to young pilots: Get married in a no-alimony state.
I hope you guys get the fucking moon. I know we won't beat it but everybody is watching this and seeing where the bar gets set. Delta up next.
