The combat tip of the Harrier wing can be removed and replaced by a ferry tip... The increased span wing spreads the weight of the aircraft over a larger area of sky in ferry flight... this gives a 9% range improvement for a given fuel weight. To obtain this range improvement in the combat configuration, additional fuel would need to be added which would amount to over fifty times the weight of the ferry tips themselves. 1, record 17, English, - ferry%20tip

Industrial development revenue bonds are a company's use of a government's ability to issue tax-free obligations. The bonds are available at lower interest-rates than conventional types of financing(generally 1 1/2 to 3 percentage points lower), and they provide 100 percent of the financing of land, building, and equipping a facility, with the money generally available within 45 days. The ’players’ required for this type of financing are-the company, which is required, primarily, to create new jobs in the geographic area where the financing is to take place; a bank, which acts as trustee; a local development ’agency’(such as an economic development board of a community improvement corporation) ;an underwriter who specializes in municipal financing; bond counsel(lawyers) with a national reputation in municipal finance; and the government entity that will issue the bonds. 1, record 20, English, - industrial%20development%20revenue%20bond
