There are two very important reasons the blinds must be open. They both relate to emergency situations.

First, if there is an emergency, it is vital that passengers and crew be able to see the situation outside the aircraft. If there is fire or debris, that will affect which exits can be used for an evacuation.

The other is more subtle. When the blinds are closed, your world kind of shrinks and you are only aware of the interior of the aircraft. This slows down an evacuation significantly as when you see outside, you have to re-orient yourself.

Keeping the blinds open means the passengers will already be oriented to the fact that they are inside and it is light or dark or whatever outside. As a result, they won’t freeze for a few seconds as they walk to and through the door should an evacuation be needed.

It will also allow emergency crews to see into the aircraft. This will allow them to identify where the passengers are and if there is a fire in the cabin.

………………..

Actually it’s the opposite, you have to open window blinds during TO and LDG, that’s because in case of emergency you must see what’s appening outside the aircraft and also for your eyes. If you close all the window blind, the cabin become dark, and your eyes get used to see in the dark, but if you have to get out off the plane quickly you will be flashed by the sunlight. That’s why it’s a procedure to keep window blinds open during take off - landing.

………………….

There are more reasons adding to the person above. It is also so cabin crew can see any problems outside. Also should the aircraft crash, the emergancy services can see who is inside and identify tho’s badly injured

This is an ongoing debate.
Many ppl believe the F-22’s stealth, supercruise, and excellent stability is enough to the victor.
Others believe the su-47 (which has a radar signature the size of Rhode Island) having the ability to fly backwards for a few moments and do a few fancy maneuvers is enough to make it the supreme victor.

I clearly vote the Raptor .
(also the su-47 has a bad rep when it comes to stalling at the worst times)

here you go. I answered same question a little while back. here my answer copy& pasted from here:

i would vouch for F-22 however.
why?
its an american aircraft. No rather, its NOT a russian aircraft, which means the technology, the materials, the durability, the avionics, the weapons, etc. are of much better quality.
it will probably last longer too.

the F-22 will stay in america where the pilots and maintenance personal are much more qualified and will treat an F-22 well.

the F-22 can employ every weapon in the NATO inventory but the Su-47 has not been certified as so. (russian weapons have severe launch limitations)

In terms of combat, I don’t see what the problem is with the F-22. Everything is fine. Its combination of speed maneuverability, avionics, weapons are well capable of killing a Su-47.
The su-47 can perform a variety of maneuvers and can exceed 9Gs.

However, it doesn’t mean the pilot will be able to survive more then 9Gs for any amount of time that is tactically advantageous. Nor are the weapons that the Su-47 employs able to be launched during most of the maneuvers that the Su-47 can perform.

Its maneuverability is supposedly better than any other aircraft. That is most probably true. However, it is an unproven concept (froward-swept wings) and who knows what problems will arise later. For one thing, they still have not fixed the likelihood of the wing tips getting ripped off during high G maneuvering.

It has a certain level of stealthiness, but certainly not the same stealthiness of an F-22. A coat of radar absorbent paint and some radar absorbent materials does not make an aircraft very stealthy whereas the F-22 was designed with stealth kept in mind every step of the process.

Hell, its still experimental, whereas the F-22 is cleared for production.

In addition with all the support hardware that the US has, like AWACS, UCAVS, satellites, subs, other aircraft, the Su-47 will be dead before it sees the F-22 100 nautical miles away about to launch a FRAAM or LRAAM or even an AMRAAM-D up his *ss.
It won’t even be able to get close to any US assets without the US knowing.

……………………..

Again, it is no contest… it’s not about supercruise, or maneuverability You put on headphones and a blindfold and I give you a pistol, I get a baseball bat and you never get to see or hear me coming… how are you going to win even with superior weaponry?? You CAN’T find the F-22 to fight it. If you could find it.. then you might have a chance to defeat it… but not only is it up there and you don’t know where… but there is an E-3 telling the F-22 where YOU are.
You can’t fight what you can’t see. Game Over.

On some trucks, boats and windows, it is most likely to see some form of stickers. These signs tell us something about the owner. Perhaps, his name, his profession or a phrase that conveys some messages that are important to him. Nowadays, however, advertising signs are more likely to be painted on trucks, boats and windows. It has become an effective and cheap way to advertise products and services.

Truck Lettering and graphics is a vibrant industry and more and more advanced technologies are being employed. The traditional way of hand painting is virtually extinct. Today computer software equipped with vinyl cutting and graphic design systems are providing consumers with premium quality truck letterings. This software enables sign makers to easily convert whatever designs that the customer prefer.

The same truck lettering technology is applied in boat lettering but the materials used are apt to be more resistant to water. The lettering is usually constructed with vinyl that is waterproof and self-adhesive.

Companies use their windows as advertising space or messages to customers and employees. Window lettering also uses vinyl materials which can be applied outside or inside the window. The color of the letterings can be anything from white to deep blue since it is more visible than other colors. All of the lettering needs can be ordered in the internet and deliveries come in easy to install instructions.

like how he treated his workers? how he spent his money? his view of labor umion? how he dealt wit competition? and what the public thought of him?

He was all business, he invented the assembly line, still in use today, he paid his workers well and was well thought of by the public, although he was quite stubborn, and did not listen to those in his inner circle, as chevrolet, ford, and plymouth made changes in the style, colors, and creature comforts the public wanted, he continued with his model A and model T and basic truck, and his attitude that his was the only way put the Company in trouble for years until he made changes the public wanted, he gave extensively to charities, but he himself lived modestly and did not like being in the limelight as some of the wealthy of the times.
