Creep0321 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 I thought it was dumb till my selection... only families and every seat was full, some families standing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM1 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Todays selection. 47 60 60 47 60(me!) 64e then another 6 60m. Lts were about a dozen 60m. No A/L for either set. Bubbles miniscule with the vast majority starting in a month or so for warrants and two for lt's. Guard and reserves front loaded with about 30% getting A/L instead of M that they were expecting.

USCav19D Posted August 12, 2016 Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 Ended up with 60s myself. It was a pretty big shock, I really thought I was going to get an Apache. Anyways I'm excited to fly a helicopter that's bigger than my car! Most of us active warrants start in a month of so, looks like bubbles really are shrinking.

USCav19D Posted August 13, 2016 Report Share Posted August 13, 2016 There's no doubt it's gorgeous. I'm still excited to fly it, and just seeing the cockpit makes me feel funny things in my pants... Â The CAS mission was near and dear to my heart because of past experiences I've had on the ground in Iraq and Afghanistan. That being said, I'm looking forward to bringing the fight to the enemy with the 60. Â You wound up in a Dustoff unit, correct? How are you liking that for a first duty station?

cptamerica2 Posted August 14, 2016 Report Share Posted August 14, 2016 The 60M fixes almost everything I screw up. The flight director may be the greatest invention ever. You'll definitely appreciate it in instruments. Congrats on getting the best aircraft in the inventory! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
