• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

They did also:

"FLASH SALE THIS FRIDAY AUGUST 26TH! (24 hours only). This is your chance to grab any of our aircraft you've been eyeing, for 30% off!"
 
Hmmm... as far as the abbreviation goes (no one is likely to write down Blackbird Simulations all the time..) i hope they carefully thought this over...

Btw, the image doesn't depict a blackbird but a crow.. ( wonder if this all has been betatested sufficiently. Seems like a rush out the door job to me.. :teapot: )

BBS anyone? I think Blackbird is a generic name. There are many "black" birds, the Crow being one.

Milviz has been moving from strictly military aircraft for sometime. The name Milviz or Military Visualizations will still be the name of the commercial/military side of the business.

Btw, personally i have never heard a crow being called a 'blackbird' . Sure, maybe by people who can't even distinguish a seagul from a sparrow.. (like people who are being asked what kind of computer they have and then answer with "a black one" ..:teapot: )

Milviz is a good short, catchy name, no need to abbreviate. And most of all very well known, established and stable. "Never change the name of a winning team"...
 
All the Milviz's/BBS's available on the MSFS Marketplace (including the C310) are also on sale.
