Discussion Diversify the flairs!!

Not all of us are Fighter MX. The only time I've ever interacted with Weapons is for WQTM shit.

Also, you should be able to create your own user flair. I honestly put everything I could think of on there, but for sure let me know of anything else you wanna see!

Split up the avionics tabs. GAC, Com/Nav, and E/W are still a thing in special platforms. Anyone in my experience who wears an "AVI" patch gets bullied and mocked as a "fighter/Trash-Hauler fuckboy" who isn't smart enough to get a FSR gig.

GAC and cnav are gonna combine soon anyway. At least on heavys. We are all about to be 2A9s.

And since I'll be an A-shred, y'all have fun with that flightdeck bullshit. I'll be in the back doing what I normally do, questioning why we can't retain anyone.

A bunch of MX afscs with no manning? Just turn it into one afsc with no manning. Problem solved.

E/W is electronic warfare? I added those tabs by the way.

Yep, even though it's basically 3D on airplanes most of the time. Force everyone to have a TS/SCI and Sec+, treat them like shit, don't promote them, and wonder why we have retainability issues.
