Housing at Altus
I second the apartment gig... I just arrived down to Altus and decided to go with the apartment option. It beats the hell out of any of Altus's "fine hotels." Living quarters on base are not bad, but they are only a quarter the size of my single-bedroom aprtment. Since PIQ runs for over four... -

Beechjet adivce?
About 85-90 N1 will give you a 200 KIAS comfortable climb. To maintain 200 KIAS, bring the power back to the horn and then about half a knob width forward--I think the FF is around 450 to 500 a side, depending on weight.- Batman

Stored UAL B757 at SEA?
Info on the UAL 757 in SEA I believe there is a huge gash than penetrated the fuselage on the left side of the plane (the side of the plane you cannot see) caused by a catering or cleaning crew truck. Since the 757 is no longer being manufactured, it is going to be awhile before new skin...- Batman

Reserve Boards
Chances are good :) If you do in fact get selected by a unit, your chances of getting a slot from the board are excellent. This, of course, is assuming that you have no prior record [criminal], a stamped FC1, and have a decent PCSM (> 75). I have a friend who was selected by the board without... -
