		The major distinction in aircraft usage is between military aviation, which includes all uses of airplane for military purposes (such as combat, patrolling, search and rescue, reconnaissance, transport, and training), and civil aviation, which includes all uses of airplanes for non-military purposes.

		Commercial general aviation pilots (when not flying privately) use aircraft for a wide range of tasks, such as flight training, pipeline surveying, passenger and freight transport, policing, crop dusting, and medical transport (medevac).

		Nose Art is the genre of art used to decorate combat aircraft.

	El Guapo: Fake French: Pitchfork Review
		Now, I'm not sure if this is an ambitious advertising campaign for the band (seeing as they also hail from the city of circling helicopters, anti-aircraft batteries, and Gulf War vet snipers), or the inspiration behind the name.
		Not far from my ritzy Capitol City digs is a gigantic piece of graffiti, proudly emblazoning the name of El Guapo.
		But don't be fooled by the Dischord label their records have sported since last year's Super/System-- this is hardly the Fugazi-derived post-punk fare the label built its name on, and is only tenuously related to the dancepunk the company's been peddling of late.
