P4G Voice Clip Collection (PC 32bit .xwb)

happy women's day !!! here's all of P4G's voice clips from the PC 32bit's xwbs. I say PC 32bit since they did change a bunch of the files and formats in the latest 64bit update, but nonetheless.

I've got the voice clips re-encoded and uploaded individually on cloud. You can still do a clean rip of the game's files if these are unsatisfactory though.

I've also got spreadsheets of file names, IDs and a bit of extra notes to better distinguish them and track them down. If you wanna help with labeling and recording just hit me up! Go help the modding community or people who just wanna nag voice lines (because i dont think i have the time anymore 🛌 one man army)

It's legally-distinct-catchphrase time! XWB wanted to see Annie dressed as a 'Power Squadron' character mentioned in Lesser Than Three, and what better way to get dressed up than a transformation sequence?

XWB, Wild Wulfus and Sousuke Kairyuu J.W J.C joined my Patreon in November - I'd like to welcome them aboard and thank you all for your support! November was kinda exciting since that's when I finally revealed my new Lesser Than Three website, which has gone over pretty well. The year is almost over, hopefully 2025 leads to new things!

Aviation Fuel Market: Soaring Toward a Sustainable and Efficient Future

The Aviation Fuel Market plays a critical role in the global transportation and logistics ecosystem, serving as the backbone of the aviation industry. From traditional jet fuels to emerging sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs), this market is undergoing significant transformation. With environmental concerns, technological advancements, and fluctuating energy prices shaping the landscape, understanding the dynamics of the aviation fuel market is crucial.

Market Overview

Size and Growth Projections

The aviation fuel market was valued at approximately USD 300 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 430 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.2% during the forecast period. This growth is fueled by the rising number of air passengers, expanding airline networks, and increased focus on energy-efficient and sustainable fuel alternatives.

Key Drivers

Increase in Air Travel: The post-pandemic recovery in air travel has been robust, particularly in Asia-Pacific and the Middle East. With domestic and international flights rebounding, demand for aviation fuel has surged.

Sustainability Initiatives: Governments and airlines are committed to achieving net-zero carbon emissions, driving investments in SAFs.

Technological Innovations: Advances in fuel-efficient aircraft technology are encouraging the development and adoption of specialized aviation fuels.

Rising Military Expenditures: Military aviation contributes significantly to fuel demand, with governments investing in modern fleets and advanced fuel types.

Market Segmentation

The aviation fuel market is broadly segmented into fuel type, application, and region.

1. By Fuel Type

Jet A-1 Fuel: Dominates the market due to its widespread use in commercial and military aviation.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF): Gaining traction as a cleaner alternative, supported by favorable government policies and airline commitments.

Avgas: Used in general aviation, particularly for small aircraft.

Biofuels and Hydrogen: Emerging as potential game-changers for long-term sustainability.

2. By Application

Commercial Aviation: Accounts for the largest share, driven by passenger and cargo transport.

Military Aviation: A significant segment due to continuous investments in defense fleets.
