Airline / Aircraft / Airport nicknames

[singlespeed]

All right it’s been a long and cold winter for most of us. I don’t feel like working on the house today and I am a little tired. I want to know what nicknames you all have for airplanes, airports, and airlines. I mean this to be fun and I hope that no one gets his or her feelings hurt. I don’t know if this has ever been done here or not. Trust me people make fun of what I fly everyday and I get a good laugh about it.

Air Midwest is Air Mid worst
Citation is Slowtation
Safewing is Scrapwing (local part 135 company)

Have fun.

Anything with a west change to worst

South-worst (Ironically all my experiences have been pleasant flying with them)
North-worst (Quite the opposite from Southwest)

 

[TZRav8r]

Citation = Crustation or Twin Cessna
Navajo = Nevergo
KDET = Dirty Toilet (Not far from the truth)
Oh and Northworst's new paint job, NWA, I guess they really like Dr. Dre and Easy E too!

I guess they didn't go to spotting school or just assume we know what they're talking about.
