“ “The requirement to preserve critical skills in our Air Force has never been more important,” Maj. Gen. Adrian Spain, the training and readiness director at Air Force headquarters, said…”

Diversity isn’t working out for them. That’s the AirForces main goal.

$600,000 but with a catch: The pilots have to accept they are racist if they are white, accept they are white supremacists, agree children should have sex changes, and transsexuals should be their CO’s

Since it’s the Air Force if they threw in a butt plug their retention and recruitment would go up.

I guess this sounds good — until they decide to do another round of forced medical experiments on the people in uniform.

Knew a pilot who had a stroke after getting shot.

There is definitely a shortage of pilots, the flight school at my airport is SOLD out, they just bought another plane last week, and it will be booked solid by next week. Problem is, most of the instructors will be moving on to real flying jobs in the next 6 months and they desperately need more. But a lot of new students are coming in regularly. Gonna be interesting to watch it play out.

YES I realize that when Brandon starts the WWIII they will be calling me and my friends up, wont matter, we are still short of pilots big time.

I thought the reason why the Air Force has a problem with keeping pilots is that you make more money flying commercial.

And that's true. But there are so many more disadvantages to being an Air Force pilot.

Why are so many fighter pilots leaving the Air Force?

OR, pilots can join any number of airlines at 5 times that rate.

I know of many Air Force pilots ditching military service for the airlines. Many!

In 1985, I was offered $16,000 to re-up in the Marine Corps.

I was flattered at the time but this $600,000 makes me feel like a simple grunt.

I saw an ad recently by united airlines calling for people to enter into their pilot training program. Never seen that before.

he Rated Officer Retention Demonstration Program,

Oh good another ridiculously titled program to fix a problem without any self-reflection on how THEY caused the problem in the first place.

Maybe if you insane Biden morons hadn’t kicked them out over the clot shot you would not be wasting $600,000.

We’ll see if even that amount of extra income compensates for working for a collection of White House and Pentagon clowns that they wouldn’t salute, respect, or even give a sh** about. Oh, and should they be captured overseas...feggedabowdit. At least when some of us served, our senior command was both competent and had our respect.

Does is also apply to WHITE MALE pilots, or is it only to make our air force look like the Third World?

F35’s cost about $80 million a copy and B2 bombers cost about $1 billion EACH in 2022 dollars.

who do they expect to fly these things? These are highly-technical and specific super-computers with wings.

So US Airforce will be LUCKY if $600K is enough to keep enough pilots.

More important - it shows how absolutely f****ing stupid, short-sighted and woke-political America’s military leadership is/was to drive even one of these pilots away with their woke/VAX BS.
