After 13 months of Air Force pilot training, over 200 hours of flight time in the T-6 and T-1, countless 12-hour days, check rides and hundreds of thousands of dollars of jet fuel, I finally found out tonight, at our class' Assignment Night, the plane I will fly for the Air Force: C-17's at McChord AFB in Tacoma, WA. I am incredibly excited and grateful as this was one of my top picks on my dream sheet. Overall our class got great drop with nearly everyone getting their top choice of plane.
The C-17 is an awesome plane, the newest of the Air Force's airlift fleet. It has the most advanced avionics, electronics, capabilities of any of the heavy aircraft. The main feature of the C-17 is its ability to land on small, dirt strips in remote operating areas while carrying up to 170,000 lbs of cargo...oh yeah, and it can stop in approximately 3,000 ft. For more stats and info on the plane check out this page on Wikipedia.
Definitely more to come on my new plane, but just enjoying the moment for now. Thank you to all the taxpayers of America that let me fly around everyday as my job!

Hello everyone!
I would like to burn a theme at this forum. There is such a nicey, called HYIP, or High Yield Investment Program. It reminds of ponzy-like structure, but in rare cases one may happen to meet a company that really pays up to 2% daily not on invested money, but from real profits.
For several years , I make money with the help of these programs.
I'm with no money problems now, but there are heights that must be conquered . I make 2G daily, and my first investment was 500 dollars only.
Right now, I managed to catch a guaranteed variant to make a sharp rise . Turn to my blog to get additional info.

Good day, sun shines!
There have been times of troubles when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large initial investment.
Nowadays, I'm happy and lucky , I begin to get real money.
It's all about how to choose a correct partner who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the income with me.
You may ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please be informed of one of them:

I am the kind of hombre who enjoys to try revolutionary things. Currently I am manufacturing my private solar panels. I am making it all alone without the help of my men. I am utilizing the internet as the only path to acheive that. I ran across a truly amazing website which explains how to make photovoltaic panels and so on. The web site explains all the steps required to solar panel construction.
I'm not really sure about how accurate the info given there is. If some experts over here who have xp with these things can have a peak and give your feedback in the site it will be grand and I'd highly value it, cause I extremely lav solar panel construction.
Tnx for reading this. You people rock.

Digital Memory sure is becoming cheaper these days. I'm curious as to when we will finally reach the ratio of 1 cent to 1 GB.
I eagerly wait for the day when I will finally be able to afford a 20 terabyte drive . But for now I guess I will be happy with having a 32 gig Micro SD Card in my R4i.

The insurance business rejected my claim, (I would take the to blame driver to small claims nevertheless , I've got no address to serve them or send a demand letter). One another driver was at fault however their insurer claims there can be a difference in your statements so that they have to take the word of their insured vs. my word. It is my opinion they acted in lousy belief and did not execute a proper investigation would this often be a valid claim in small claims court?
