I don't know what your preoccupation with someone named JONDC9 is, but you have fun with that.
I knew a guy at one place I worked and we called him "TIM" for "The Ice Man"...maybe that's you?
Anyway, I was trying to get people to build a foundation from past knowledge instead of skipping the early part of aviation and just learning the present day.
It is possible to know what a wind flurry is ( in wright useage) and know what GPS is in modern useage and combine knowledge to make for safer flying.

The problem with the spoken word is sometimes the true meaning can be difficult to really understand.
I can recall times when women kept saying no, no, no when they really meant yes, yes, yes.

Some of us have been flying longer than you, the RN as well, and have never heard the "old" terms you are now trying to push with the disingenuous attitude that you have of assuming anyone who has never heard the terms as "newbies".
'Popeye' is in neither.
