And what do you call the act of flying an old hellicopter???
(ex: Bell 47)

Stuffing a poisenous snake in a bag with one hand tied behind your back.
 
RJ = Replacement Jet
(i hear it all the time in DFW from DAL pilots. if i was them, i'd be bitter too!)
 
Please Gentlemen,

The F-117 is not the woblin goblin. It flys very smoothly with flybywire. Call it rather the Cockroach or stinkbug because it is really ugly and only comes out at night. woblin goblin came from some fool who wrote a crazy article for popular mechanics back in 87.

Furthermore, while the F-16 is sometimes referred to as the electric jet, those who fly it prefer to call it the Viper because it bites fast and hard.
 
Twin Comanche--Twinkie (good for enraging Twinkie owners)
Apache--Apathy (at least the one I used to fly)
