The Flick -- A term used by air traffic controllers to describe a mental model representing the current and future positions of air traffic in a section of airspace. Controllers visualize the paths of multiple aircraft in terms of position, altitude, trajectory and speed. Controllers also refer to this as "having the picture." But the picture moves -- like a movie -- hence the term “the flick.”

Krugman on the Cover
For the other Krugman fans out there, Mr. Krugman made the cover of Newsweek this week.
You can see the cover and other photos at this link.
Text only at this link.
The article is more about the man than his ideas. So, unless you’re a fan, you probably won’t care much about it.
