How can it be a buzzword if it's been popularized for 45 years and been around for nearly 100?

Because they LOVE their buzzwords and phrases. Another one is "Tax cuts for the rich". Its all chirp words get everyone in a line to say the same thing. These are linguistic programming techniques used by people to take advantage of younger people who dont understand how budgeting and accounting works in business. I know for a fact how companies do budgets because I build budgets for a very large corporation and forecast for very large events. If we know there is going to be a cut in expenses somewhere, we budget that expense in other categories. We already have predetermined PBIT values, so we don't just take off the expense, in most cases we just reallocate it to another account. Therefore giving us more room for labor or rental costs or travel costs. By reducing taxes, companies arent going to just leave that expense money on the table, they are going to reallocate it to other accounts to help run their businesses. Its not going to just go into a business owners pocket willy nilly like these art students are propagandized to believe...

Supersonic transports were considered to deal with pilots on long flights “running out of time”.

Aces High General Discussion / Offline Missions with Custom Skins
« Last post by ZANZIBAR on Yesterday at 01:24:58 AM »
Is there a way to create offline missions with custom skins or edit existing offline missions to do this same thing. My idea is to have custom skins that I have created to fight AI with.  :rock

Custom Skins / A Mismatched 109G-10

Bf 109G-10 of 6./JG 52 surrendered to American troops at Ainring, southern Germany on May 8th 1945. II/JG 52 had been fighting against Soviet forces in eastern Austria and southern Czechoslovakia in the final months of the war. All squadrons escaped capture by the Russians by flying west on May 8th, most landing at Neubiberg, surrendering to the Americans there. But "Yellow 6", "Yellow 12", and "Black 12" only went as far as Ainring.

"Yellow 6" was the most visually interesting of these three. It was originally built in the Wiener-Newstadt production system in late 1944 or early 1945 and initially used by the Gruppenstab of I/JG 53 as evidenced by the over-painted Ace of Spades emblem on the cowl and the chevron/triangle shaped cover-ups on the fuselage. Yellow nose band and rudder served as IFF markings. I/Jg 53 was disbanded and it's aircraft were given to II/JG 52, probably along with the pilots and crews. At this point this plane was made part of 6./JG 52 and given it's yellow number and Gruppe bar. What isn't known is when the port wing was replaced with an all light green unit. Even the insignia positions differ from the starboard wing. The aircraft's spine was painted in a solid color, which is unusual and might be evidence of repair. One of the plane's pilots decorated the fuselage under the canopy with a "pissing" man.
