Grillo

In Dominican neighborhoods, a Grillo is a woman considered promiscuous because she jumps from man to man like a cricket. It is synonymous with calling someone an avion (airplane). While the street definition focuses on behavior regardless of looks, upper-class youth often use the term to mean an ugly girl.

A girl might look like a celebrity, but if she is easy and hooks up with everyone, then in the neighborhood they label her a Grillo or an avion.

IDAC

Acronym for the Dominican Institute of Civil Aviation. It is mockingly categorized as an OCAS (Office for Complicating Simple Matters). While its role is to regulate and grow the local aviation sector, it is criticized for being bloated, employing 2,000 people to regulate only 1,000, and for favoring foreign airlines over domestic ones. Historically, its directors have been political appointees (lawyers, dentists, etc.) rather than aviation experts, a result of the country's long-standing system of political patronage.

I intend to start a Dominican flagship airline for international wide-body flights, but the IDAC is making it impossible for me. Military pilots are taking jobs from those who paid for their own flight training because the IDAC grants civilian licenses to the military.
