Anyone interested in a REAL USN CARRIER QUALIFICATION grading spreadsheet that automatically calculates your pass or failure on CQs?

I built the form based on the written forms the LSO used to use when I was in in the mid 1980s...

You enter grades based on specific segments of the approach and trap with a specific point value being generated from those specific choices for each pass and then it calculates your realeastic grade...

IIRC- he said he was an F-16 pilot in the Airforce. But it's been a long time since he said that, so I may be confused.

I was NEVER in the AIRFARCE!

I flew (or should say 'attempted') to fly the A-7E Corsair II, the SLUF!

I was far from effective on traps...

Kap it is a interactive excel spreadsheet that you can use to grade performance...

You want it?

No, I'm only 20. I'm still building up money for a college fund.

But if they were to ask, I'd go tommorow. But you don't have to be a military vet to be grateful and show respect for the sacrifice that was made for our way of life.

I figured a pussy like you would say that. You are an un appreciative son of a bitch. I want you to change something that you do in the future. The next time you say that We are going to invade this country, or we're going to destroy that army I want you to say the army will invade this because you are like every little arrogant rat who hides behind other peoples bravery and courage. If you were to have served in the army then you'd have the right to say We will fight here, We will invade there. But you don't have that right. " If they were to ask you'd go tomorrow." LOL haha, not only are you a wimp you have no spine. The military does not ask kids like you who live on Civie street to join the army. You have to be a man about it and join yourself. You obviously live life where things are handed to you on a silver platter. You've got a lot of nerve talking the way you do when the closest you have come to combat was probably a computer screen. You need a serious reality check. Sure you can show respect for other peoples bravery but you go to far. You don't have to spend your whole life in the military. I spent a little time in the British military. It taught me a lot of things. You'll be in a big world of hurt if you keep up going on the way you do.

in order of importance, CAG I dont have Excell so I'll pass, but thanks for offering it sounds cool.

Random, formerly being in the mil doesnt give YOU any right to tell someone else what they can say or how they can say it. Your post is as stupid as Bigs tyranicle post a while ago about what a person HAS to do to be a REAL American. Yes bigs is full of knee-jerk patriotic crap most of the time, BUT he does get to say it. TRUE the loudest mouths are rarely experianced in what they spout off about, it doesnt matter wheather it's military, racing cars or sex, it's just the anonymous nature of the internet, it sucks and it wont change till everybody has to post thier real name and address with every posting(no thanks). So simmer down and stop the name calling (might be a violation of the conduct rules of this board, not sure) please.

How do you recognise an (ex-)military guy: He's the one not wearing BDUs when he isn't on duty.

Having served gives you a new perspective and everybody who has done it feels he's in part a better man than all civilians, especially the ones who would "go immediately if they asked" LOL (and never do). I think thats because when you've been sitting in the shit a few times you think of those civilians who you are doing it for and who don't even know about your situation. On the other hand you smile about them when you are on manoevres because they are paying taxes so you can have some fune racing over fields in a tank or doing live anti-tank missile and artillery fireing.

So basically if you see a civilian u think: "this is one who has never learned discipline, who doesnt know shit about us and who pays for my fun"

And if anyone says "Id go ..." thats like the little kid who thinks that fighter on the airshow is cool and wants to know everything, but will never even think of the hard passages you have to go through before being able to fly it.

BTW, are USAF pilots still trained as infantrymen first? Or is it only the A10 pilots these days?
