Next Meeting: March 27-28, 2017
Norman, Oklahoma - Thank you for your interest in the IAFF and the Local IAFF 2067. Our goal is to maintain the highest level of safety for our members in an effort to serve the Norman community during an emergency. We continue to strive daily in helping our citizens obtain the highest level of emergency service possible. We also make every assurance each and every member of the International Association of Firefighters Local 2067 are equally compensated as professional firefighters & emergency responders. We are proud to serve Norman. We are proud to fight for and defend the rights of Firefighters and the rights of our community when pledging to be the finest, safest, and progressively motivated Fire Department possible. Thank you for visiting.
April 26, 2016 - After an extensive search, Norman City Manager Steve Lewis announces the appointment of Travis King as Norman's new fire chief and emergency manager. King currently serves as Acting Deputy Chief for the Norman Fire Department. King will assume his duties as fire chief Friday and will lead a department that includes 9 fire stations, 163 positions and an annual operating budget of $18.7 million.
"With his twenty years of experience with the Norman Fire Department, Travis King is highly qualified for this position and will be a great asset to the Norman community," said Lewis. "Travis has been an incident commander on some of the largest fire and emergency incidents in our city's history. He has proven his leadership under pressure."
King said he is "honored and humbled by the opportunity" and is grateful to be appointed as Norman's new fire chief. "The Norman fire department is committed to delivering quality services to the community and I am dedicated to leading that effort," King added.
King has served in a variety of assignments with the Norman Fire Department, including assistant chief, shift commander, incident commander during the Cleveland County fire storm in 2012 as well as a member of the Region 6 Hazardous Materials Response Team since 2003.
Contributing to King's qualifications is his educational background. He holds a bachelor's degree in Emergency Responder Administration from Oklahoma State University where he was recognized on the President's List of Distinguished Students. King also completed the Oklahoma Executive Fire Officer Leadership program at Oklahoma State University and several emergency management courses though Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Emergency Management Institute. King is active within community, serving as a big brother in Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Norman, and has served as a Career Exploration Education Advisory Committee member with the Moore-Norman Technology Center.
April 13, 2016 - The Norman Fire Department's medical first responders are now certified for, and will begin to provide, advanced level of emergency care, in addition to the basic level medical care currently provided. The new increased level of emergency care will begin Thursday.
"Since we are often first on the scene in a medical emergency, we are very grateful for the support of our community that allows us to provide a higher level of care in those serious or life-threatening situations in which every minute matters," said Interim Fire Chief Jim Bailey. Bailey said the fire department responds to approximately 8700 calls for medical assistance each year, which is 69% of the total calls for service received by the department. (More here...)
Support SB 1240
Sales tax is currently the only funding source for both big cities and small towns across Oklahoma. They are struggling with declining sales tax revenues and are still required to provide core public safety protection services.
Senate Bill 1240 allows a city or town to voluntarily create a Public Safety Protection District. This bill does not mandate municipalities to create these districts it merely allows governing bodies the means to determine if the citizens want to create and fund a district.
The measure to form a Public Safety Protection District would require majority vote to be adopted. It would levy an annual assessment in the amount of no greater than five (5) mills on each dollar of assessed value of the property in the district if approved by a majority of the voters.
The proceeds of which would be used solely for the operation and maintenance of the public safety protection district, including expenses related to purchasing and maintaining public safety equipment and payment of salaries and benefits of the city employees who provide law enforcement and/or fire protection public safety services within the district. It does not compete with rural fire districts for assessments and it does not impose the City's power over another jurisdiction. It does not take money away from entities receiving ad valorem revenue.

With The Crosstown officially in the books, we must rehash what it all means going forward. Thursday I decided to do that by bringing in national columnist from FoxSports.com Zac Jackson for the first 20 minutes as we talk about UC's suffocating defense, where they rank among other teams in Ohio and how run down a phone battery in under three hours.
For the second 25 minutes of the podcast I chatted with Rick Broering of Musketeerreport.com to talk about the future location of the Xavier-UC game. It appears Xavier wants it on campus and UC will fight for it to stay at US Bank. Rick and I share this podcast to discuss how both sides feel about the issue and what will ultimately become of this rivalry going forward.
Thanks for reading and listening -- enjoy the podcast. And as always shoot any questions, comments or suggestions to me via email to firstname.lastname@example.com or hit me up on Twitter at @pauldehnerjr. And yes, I'm working on this being downloadable to iTunes and am very close to making that happen. Things are happening, the wheels are in motion.

"(This show is somewhat crossed between Spongebob Squarepants and Camp Lazlo.)"
Ignoring awkwardness of construction, this is pure opinion. Has this been stated in a critical article? Jonathan 22:31, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I've noticied the show seems to be a ripp-off of Sponge Bob. I noted that in editing that certain characters are the same. Except, are the creators of this and spongebob the same? Maybe if their the same creators it's like Family Guy/The Simpsons alikeness. Travis 00:23, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Wild Blue internet?
Any of ya'll folks use this internet service? This is one of my only options at my new house just curious if you or someone you know are happy with it.
I haven't ever heard of it. I am currently using VZ wireless but plan on switching to Charter.
never heard of it i got time warner road runner *beep beep*
nope never heard of it, I have Buckeye cable
We USED to have Wild Blue.........but we wern't at all happy with it.....it seemed rather slow........we just didn't like it.
That's what we are only able to get here too and we do use Wildblue. I'm happy with the speed and downloading ability but there aren't any "papertrails" with this company so you have to remember to keep up with your account and all that cuz the won't send bills to you. Also, if you have a problem with any technical issues their tech. dept. isn't the greatest. I guess that it's a fairly new company and they are still working out the kinks but it's been working well for me so far. If you need anymore info Buck just send me a PM whenever and I'll try my darndest to help you out.
Oh Yeah, being a satellite signal receiving service you can lose signal on a rainy day.
I ain't never heard of it.
Thanks lady and gentlemen. I'll pm you timber.

Expect delays on I-5 near Lakehead through the summer
LAKEHEAD, Calif. - Holiday weekend traffic led to major delays on I-5 in both directions near Lakehead. Construction of a new bridge near the Antlers Road exit reduced I-5 down to one lane in both directions. Caltrans started the project in 2009 and it has an expected completion of 2015. Increased traffic from the holiday weekend and unexpected high volumes of commercial truck traffic led to delays of up to three hours.
Drivers should expect delays throughout the summer.
"It's likely during the weekends through July and August, the remaining weekends, we will also experience similarly heavy traffic, so motorists should be aware to carry plenty of water and expect delays of two to three hours," said Caltrans construction manager Chris Cummings.
Caltrans has a rover on site during the weekends that can provide water and gas to drivers stuck in the delays.
Caltrans said the delays are inevitable. There is no other way to divert traffic through that area due to the nature of the project. Drivers can take a detour on highway 299 and highway 89 to avoid the area. That detour will add an extra hour of drive time.
Caltrans has changeable signage placed north and south of the construction area to alert drivers of potential delays. Traffic information is also available on 1610 AM.

Liz did a fabulous job. She came out a few weeks before the wedding and did a trial run, she spent a few hours to help create exactly the look I was looking for. We went through a few different hairstyles that day until I found exactly what I was looking for. Liz never made me feel rushed, she just wanted to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted for my special day. The day of the wedding she helped make me and my bridesmaid look absolutely gorgeous. She even went above and beyond to help my bridesmaids get the exact look they wanted for the big day. I spent a lot of time looking for someone to do my hair and makeup. I could not be more happy with my choice. Thank you Liz for helping to make me feel like a beautiful bride on one of the happiest days of my life.

Today I was driving on roads that resembled nothing so much as greasy polished glass. The roads had about a half inch of clear ice on them with a dusting of blowing snow over the top. I will comment that the roads were icy enough that at 70mph less than an inch of accelerator movement would break traction on the drive wheels. Reasonable safe stopping distance from 70mph would have been about a half mile (or more), especially with ABS. Yes, I took that in to account at all times. (I hate ABS)
As I was driving along I noticed that the car was quite wiggly, taking constant correctional steering to keep a straight line. It was not so much as to feel unstable, but very noticeable in that I was constantly adjusting left and right just a hair, similar to the feeling you get when driving with cheap tires down a highway with rain grooves or across a grated bridge.
As an experiment I turned off the traction control. The wiggly feeling immediately went away.
I did not feel the same instability (for lack of a better term) on dry or snowy road, only when on glare ice with all four wheels. During the times I felt the instability the traction light did not illuminate.
I must say that on the ice I felt much safer and more in control without the traction/stability control. I think I will turn the traction control off whenever I am driving on glare ice.
Does this hold true with what others have experienced in our cars in extreme low traction conditions?
Caveat -- Before the flames start about driving at highway speeds on slippery roads, this is North Dakota, in a section where three cars in a mile of highway is considered heavy traffic. I have been driving on ice since I was 13 (about five decades ago) and i am quite good at it. So long as I can avoid the stupid drivers i have no problem. With skill, forbearance, planning and caution it is possible to drive on ice without danger. One just needs to plan speed or direction changes well in advance and adjust velocity gradually to be able to make controlled changes. Keeping a separation of one complete stopping distance from other vehicles and reducing closing rates to near zero also helps.

The Supreme Court agreed Monday to delve into the sensitive question of whether the First Amendment protects anti-gay protesters carrying placards outside military funerals, bearing "America is Doomed," "Thank God for 9/11" and other volatile slogans, like "Thank God for dead soldiers."
The messages and picketing are part of a Kansas church's belief that the United States' tolerance for homosexuality is cause for soldiers' deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The case the justices decided to review Monday tests the boundaries of free speech versus freedom of religion — doctrines both embodied in the First Amendment.
Without comment, the justices agreed to review last year's federal appellate decision that overturned a $5 million verdict (.pdf) in favor of a Baltimore man who sued the Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka and its pastor, Fred Phelps, in 2006. The father of Marine Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder was awarded damages for, among other things, invasion of privacy and emotional distress for the events that occurred outside his son's funeral at a Catholic church in Maryland.
"Whether the freedom of religion and assembly is subordinate to the freedom of speech is an important question because by necessary implication, one of the tenets of the First Amendment is undermined," (.pdf) lawyers for the soldier's father, Albert Snyder, told the high court in a filing.
His lawyers told the justices that the presence of Phelps and a handful of others "created a negative and circus-like atmosphere during a solemn and religious occasion" and "added insult to injury during a time of grief and mourning." The protesters also displayed a banner depicting two men engaging in anal sex.
Lawyers for Phelps, however, urged the court to stay out of the case, saying the deaths of U.S. soldiers are a matter of public concern and debate.
"How these soldiers are living and dying is a topic of substantial public interest and dialogue, at least nationwide, probably worldwide. The prevailing view is that the soldiers are heroes, and that God is obligated to bless America," (.pdf) Phelps' lawyers wrote. "Those views clash with the Bible, in respondents' sincerely held religious opinion, and when these funerals are used to express those viewpoints, respondents feel duty-bound to provide a countervailing message, to wit, if you want God's blessings, you have to obey him, and if you want the soldiers to stop dying, you have to stop sinning in this nation."

Biceps brachii muscle oxygenation in electrical muscle stimulation
Muthalib, Makii, Jubeau, Marc, Millet, Guillaume Y., Maffiuletti, Nicola A., Ferrari, Marco, & Nosaka, Kazunori (2010) Biceps brachii muscle oxygenation in electrical muscle stimulation. Clinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, 30(5), pp. 360-368.
The purpose of this study was to compare between electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) and maximal voluntary (VOL) isometric contractions of the elbow flexors for changes in biceps brachii muscle oxygenation (tissue oxygenation index, TOI) and haemodynamics (total haemoglobin volume, tHb = oxygenated-Hb + deoxygenated-Hb) determined by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The biceps brachii muscle of 10 healthy men (23–39 years) was electrically stimulated at high frequency (75 Hz) via surface electrodes to evoke 50 intermittent (4-s contraction, 15-s relaxation) isometric contractions at maximum tolerated current level (EMS session). The contralateral arm performed 50 intermittent (4-s contraction, 15-s relaxation) maximal voluntary isometric contractions (VOL session) in a counterbalanced order separated by 2–3 weeks. Results indicated that although the torque produced during EMS was approximately 50% of VOL (P<0Æ05), there was no significant difference in the changes in TOI amplitude or TOI slope between EMS and VOL over the 50 contractions. However, the TOI amplitude divided by peak torque was approximately 50% lower for EMS than VOL (P<0Æ05), which indicates EMS was less efficient than VOL. This seems likely because of the difference in the muscles involved in the force production between conditions. Mean decrease in tHb amplitude during the contraction phases was significantly (P<0Æ05) greater for EMS than VOL from the 10th contraction onwards, suggesting that the muscle blood volume was lower in EMS than VOL. It is concluded that local oxygen demand of the biceps brachii sampled by NIRS is similar between VOL and EMS.

I have a 2000 VW Jetta VR6 that generally is a blast to drive but sucks alot of gas & has persistent, annoying problems. I've had it for 1 year & I've had just about enough of this car. Sometimes I feel like my car is posessed like Stephen King's Christine. :evil:
I've had persistent problems with the anti-theft system randomly setting the alarm off for no apparent reason. I've had the keys replaced & reprogrammed (very expensive btw). And now, this past week it rained like hell here for several days. It started fine in the morning when I went to work but when I went back out at lunch the damn anti-theft system (electronic immobilizer as it says in the owner's manual) had activated & would not let me start the car. :angry:
I think that there is a short somewhere that when it gets wet or damp causes the alarm to activate. This is the 3rd time this has happened & quite frankly I'm fed up with this damn car. It's still sitting there & I am stuck with no wheels until I can get this fixed. :angry:
My dealership in Seattle told me that I have a malfunctioning door latch or trunk latch mechanism & that a VW dealer service shop must work on the car so they can connect it to their diagnostic & download an unlock code from VW HQ.
The idiot(s) at VW that decided on this design & functionality should be publically flogged & humiliated but, being Germans, they might actually like it. :evil:
Problem for me is that I am currently working a contract job in Marshall, MN & the closest VW dealers are each over 80 miles away; 1 in Sioux Falls, SD & 1 in Mankato, MN. So, now I'm faced with not only the yet unknown repair costs but also the enormous towing bill. :angry:
Sorry for the length but I'm sure that you can tell I'm pissed at VW for making such a stupid design error. :yap:
Anyone out there know any tricks or workarounds so I can get my car operational & drivable?
What about any downloadable computer programs that I can run from my laptop while connected to the car?

Places like this, in this case, apparently meant a house in a poor neighborhood in Jackson, where Reed's friends hung out. How come they never find a "fan" who says something like, "Who cares if he smokes weed? So do I, every night before I whack off to Hustler."
Anyway, I'm giving Reed a half-point on the crime scale, the half coming for being too stoned to drop the bag before the cops braceleted him.
Return of the Peavy
It might be time to start naming some more-common sports crimes. Already in this column we've identified some of the extreme species of jock-bust, in particular the "Probert" — so named after hockey goon-legend Bob "The Bad One" Probert, who was the standard-setter for jocks getting blasted on coke and refusing to submit to arrest without multiple Taser shots. We've also had the "Arenas-o-sault," named after Agent Zero down in Washington, describing the athlete who says, "You can't arrest me, I'm a pro athlete" as he is dragged into the cruiser. In fact, our own ex-Patriot Ty Law is a pioneer of the Arenas-o-sault.
Now it might be time to coin the "Peavy," i.e., a bust of an athlete who freaks out at an airport when cops tell him he can't park in the pick-up/drop-off lane. San Diego Padres ace Jake Peavy had one of those this past year; cops at the Mobile, Alabama, airport told him he couldn't double-park his car to unload his bags, and Peavy told them, basically, to send him a bill ("Write me a ticket, I'll pay it," he reportedly said). Cops were unamused and hauled his ass to the hole.
Normally these stories reek of small-town law enforcement resentment at being big-timed by out-of-town jocks in a hurry. We had a similar story this past week, when Cleveland Browns cornerback Leigh Bodden was busted by police at Hopkins International Airport, in Cleveland. The corner apparently made the mistake of putting his 2004 Yukon (why is it always a Yukon?) in reverse in a one-way arrivals area. When cops told him to stop, he parked the car in a no-parking area. Bedlam and shouting ensued; Bodden then pulled a full Peavy, refusing to move his car from the no-parking zone. Offended law-enforcement personnel eventually deemed Bodden "abusive," and his ass, too, was dragged away in an outstanding use of taxpayer money.
Bodden is going to get a half-point too; he can keep Reed company at the bottom of the list.
When he's not googling "Rocket lurch" and "Peavy strikes out," Matt Taibbi writes for Rolling Stone. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Hey bird i dont eat pesticides and im trying to cut back on herbicides.
Are you a commercial beekeeper?
Not commercial, out of control hobbyist should hit 100 hives this summer. I think I might have a problem.
I guess, I am a commercial beekeeper with only 100 hives.

"If nominated, I will not run; if elected, I will not serve."
Reread the whole thing. This time pay attention to what you're reading and not the thoughts you already have in your head. Pay real close attention to the toxicity section.....click on it and read the info on the toxicity!
Leer Family Honey Farm-Shannon Leer
Then I would say you are lucky because all you need to do is find out what chemicals were in that field and do not put your bees near those chemicals again. Problem solved.
Are you mad at the farmer down the road, because he planted his field no till, would it matter if he plowed it under then planted. Sound like your mad because he kill your forage area. When you loose forage area the fewer hive's that area would support. If this happens every year I would move at that time of year.
Hey.... what have you guys done to my thread....lol
I'm taking cover under the bus while you guys reload.

Oh, what was I doing today..... shake shake shake....

hey bird if commercial beekeeper was in the dictionary it would read
Commercial beekeeper- intuitive, tenacious, inventive, independent, and most important makes livelihood off beekeeping ALONE.
It is a lot different when you and your loved ones rely on the health of these little bugs.
its spring you had better bee doing the shake shake shake. there are so many ways to do this job successful. a person in the midwest who wants to make a honey crop is so much different than someone who wants to farm bulk bees and pollinate crops. if an old queen is still laying today in a warm climate the only thing you could do to keep em in the box is to shake shake shake.
Hey Keith I sent you a private message about Nutra Bee feed, can you check your inbox and get back to me please.

ben I can see your still upset that I'm not a commercial beekeeper. Maybe the greedy farmer down the road from you will loan me the cash to go commercial. No he has to feed his family too.
Birdman, no worries I'll loan you the cash. but I'm still reading crash course #137

Incidently - there are many, many photographs and videos of the horrible events of Sept 11. The families (to my knowledge) do not condemn them. These photos and videos form a historical record of this terrible event. They are not trivial, this guys stuff is.

One Beaty District resident disagreed so vehemently she announced her withdrawal from the district. Chief among the complaints were the levying of a proposed $500-per-day fine and misdemeanor charges for non-compliance. Former city councilman Bucky Patton said that about 10 years ago a petition circulated among the residents of the historic districts and 90 percent of those who signed agreed that the rules were too strict. "Since that time, things have gotten lax," said Patton.

Firefighters were already removing their gear and begin ning to roll up the hoses crisscrossing the ground when The News Courier arrived.

Photoshop scandals aside, there have been more than a few times when we've wished for a tool to tone sagging skin, retouch dark spots, and 'erase' a few lines. This potent serum is the closest we're going to get. Packed with antiaging ingredients, it reduces the appearance of wrinkles, tightens pores, and smooths over unevenness. Apply it twice a day and you'll always feel ready for your candid.
I absolutely LOVE this serum! After using it for a little over a week, my crows feet are nearly gone, my brown spots are nearly gone, and my skin glows! Even more amazing is that it soaks into the skin really nicely without leaving a sticky residue (pretty much every serum I've ever tried always feels sticky). This stuff absolutely ROCKS and I am completely hooked!5
After trying the travel set with the 3 products, the serum was one of my favorites. It soaked in rather quick and evenly. Felt like it was absorbed where it needed to be. I've used other serums that seem to just sit on the face and dry up rather than soaking in. Product I've purchased full size.4
I received a sample size of this item from the bonus shop. It's been a little over a week now and I'm not noticing much of the desired effect yet, but that's understandable. The sample looks rather small but it will actually last me quite awhile, as I don't need to use very much to coat my face. Hopefully in a few weeks I'll see it helping to shrink up my pores like it says it should. I have noticed that it seems to really dry out my skin, so I most definitely use it under my regular moisturizer to remedy that.3

Florida Health Insurance Providers Propose Rate Increases for 2016
Health insurance providers that provide healthcare plans to Florida residents through the federal healthcare marketplace, healthcare.gov, is want to increase rates in 2016. These rates increases are in the double digits. This rate increase could be costly for Florida residents.
Why Do They Want an Increase?
Florida health insurance providers state that one of the main reasons for the requested increase is that more Florida residents are using their insurance. These providers are seeing an increase in doctor visits and filling prescriptions. According to a recent Gallup Poll, 9 out of 10 Americans are covered by healthcare. Even with the uninsured rate higher in Florida (at about 22%) than the national average, over a million people in Florida signed up for health insurance coverage through healthcare.gov in 2015.
In addition to more insurance users, United Healthcare of Florida also claims that healthcare providers are charging more. To cover these costs, Florida health insurance providers want to place the burden of those costs on the citizens of Florida who use Obamacare.
Finally, other experts see another reason for the rate increases. These experts believed that the health insurance companies proposed an original rate for Obamacare that was lower than the actual value of the insurance to lure in buyers. Once the companies had a stable client base from the marketplace, one being https://floridainsurancequotes.net/health-insurance-quote/ they began to introduce rate increases banking on individuals not wanting to change coverage, despite the rate increases.
How Much of an Increase?
Florida health insurance providers are only required to report a request of 10% or more. That being said, United is requesting an increase of 18% along with Coventry. Aetna is looking for an increase of 21%. Cigna currently has the lowest reported request at 12%.
What Happens Next?
Florida insurance regulators have the power to reject the rate increase requests. More often, lower rate increases are negotiated. Overall, Obamacare providers increased rates about 5.4% on average last year. Final rate increase figures are not released until August. Open enrollment for healthcare.gov begins in November. This gives users a couple of months to shop around for the best price.
What Does This Mean for Floridians?
While over a million Floridians receive federal subsidies for health insurance coverage purchased through healthcare.gov, these individuals may still see an increase in health insurance premiums. Government subsidies only cover so much. If the rate increases are steep enough, the subsidies will not cover enough of the premium so those receiving the subsidies will have to pay more out of pocket.
Rate Increases Spark Debate
These rate increases are sparking debate over the ACA all over the country. Opponents of Obamacare argue that the flooding of the insurance marketplace is creating a healthcare backlash. Patient interests groups are arguing that Obamacare is not all that it's touted to be. Whether it's Obamacare opponents or patient advocates, the sentiment stands that Obamacare isn't working.
Rate Increases Not Good for Florida Residents
If Florida health insurance providers get the raise increases that they're wanting, this won't work out well for Florida residents who use healthcare.gov. Now that affordable healthcare is within their grasp, Florida health insurance providers want to yank it back up out of reach. It should be a good thing that over a million Florida residents are now receiving healthcare that was once unavailable to them, instead of being a reason for complaint. If these proposed rate increases are allowed, then over a million Floridians will probably have to pay more for health insurance, and the vision of providing affordable healthcare will only be a dream.

I had my timing belt replaced at Heubueger Motors last week. I occasionally notice a grinding sound when I start the engine. It sounds like if you kept cranking the engine after it has turned over. It seems to only happen when it is cold out but since this is a new issue, I cannot confirm this fact.
They replaced the timing belt, adjuster assy, and 2 idler cp belts. The dealer is 40 minutes one way.
I uploaded a youtube video with the sound. It is at the very end. I will try to get a better one probably tomorrow morning when it is cold outside.
video 2012 10 21 11 52 26 - YouTube
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Exercise Jetstream 1982
The latest in the series of Jetstream exercise, was held in the early part of 1982. The significant aspect of this exercise was a simulated war situation between two different zones, each under its own independent commander. The operations were monitored by the Command Operations Centre but the actual conduct of the exercise was left to the field commanders. This gave useful experience to senior officers in command and control procedures while at the same time imparted greater realism to the action in the air.
The vigorous operational preparedness programme followed by the PAF from 1978, has brought the service to a state of readiness in which it can face any enemy at any time. PAF is a fighter pilot's air force today. Having experienced two major wars, PAF is ever conscious of the numerical superiority of its protagonists in the area. The gap in terms of numbers has been bridged through superior airmanship. In other words shortcoming in numbers has been made up by greater pilot and maintenance performance.
The intensive flying being done in Operational Squadrons, is in consonance with the highest standards of Flight Safety. On assumption of command of PAF, Air Chief Marshal Muhammad Anwar Shamim stressed the need for improved flight safety. He declared, "Through the attainment of higher standards of operational readiness was the PAF's foremost objective, it was equally imperative in peace-time that the price for achieving that aim was kept at a level not beyond the national means." A systematic programme for higher flight safety was introduced in July 1978. The stress was on better training education and continuous indoctrination on the significance of flying correctly and safely. At the Bi-annual Flight Safety Review held on September 25, 1979, the Chief of the Air Staff lauded the marked downward trend in all kinds of aircraft occurrences. Speaking on the occasion Air Chief Marshal Shamim observed, "Operations safety was not an end in itself. It was in fact an index of efficiency and a mean of augmenting the Air Forces combat potential. As systematic analysis of failure trends helped reveal potential risks and enabled the PAF to make timely corrective action, flight safety directly contributed to operational efficiency." The relationship between operational preparedness and better flight safety has been now fully established through the personal interest of the Air Chief. The Pakistan Air Force through constant hard work of its personnel and leadership, stands ready for any kind of emergency or threat to country's security. Inter-Services co-operation has received a great deal of attention and with the establishment of Northern, Southern and Central Air Commands, PAF is in a better position to support operations of Pakistan Army and Pakistan Navy fleet. Reorganization and decentralisation of the Air Defence, was essential to ensure proper planning and allocation of air resources. This was a long felt need and has been meet in the larger interest of national defence.
PAF believes in keeping itself equipped with the best possible technology available to it. In concrete terms it means aircraft, ammunition, air defence weapons, runways and support facilities. The PAF has always stood for quality both in terms of personnel and euipment. Shortages in aircraft have been satisfactorily met with induction of sufficient number of F-6 (Mig-19) and Mirage aircraft. The big breakthrough achieved is the F-16 Fighting Falcon deal with the United States of America. Under the terms of agreement, a total of forty aircraft would be delivered to PAF over a phased period of time. The top command of PAF has taken full cognisance of arms build-up in neighbouring India and the beefing up process of the Indian Air Force. Pakistan has made an appropriate response and the period 1978 onwards is marked with painstaking efforts towards threat evaluation and preparation for meeting the challenge. Decisions taken will have positive far reaching and long term effect on national defence and security. Pakistan will soon have a fully automated and integrated air defence system backed by a chain of sophisticated high level and low level radars. Crotale surface to air missiles have given more credibility and deterrence value. All these measures will ensure the availability of requisite technology for keeping the skies of Pakistan clear from any would be aggressor.
With the establishment of Pakistan Aeronautical Complex at Kamra near Attock, solid foundations are laid for indigenous production and major overhauling/engineering. The two main units at the complex - Mirage Rebuild Factory and F-6 Rebuild Factory, have started giving returns for the investment made. Facilities for assembly leading to production of light aircraft Saab Mushshak have also been created. Latest and most modern machines have been installed and PAC Kamra holds a bright future for aviation technology in Pakistan.
Operational Readiness is the aim and objective of our air force. PAF under the inspiring guidance of battle tested and battle hardened leadership, has emerged much stronger and much more powerful. Its strength lies in the absolute dedication of its highly motivated and disciplined personnel. The secret of the continued PAF success story is pursuit of professionalism and striving for the highest standards in excellence. Amongst the distinguished dignitaries who visited different sectors of Exercise Jetstream 1982, was the President of Pakistan, General M. Zia-ul-Haq. Reproduced below are his observations, made at Sargodha.
