Call signs?

And Skyvans. At least they used to a bunch of years ago when I fueled them in PIT.

Ah, all the skyvans are off the cert.

Just the dead sexy 330 and 360

Kinda funny when we are doing day flights. Check in as Night Cargo and sometimes ATC is like, "So it isn't night"

F-16 call sign

I had to hold short and wait for "Foxy" to land a couple of weeks ago at Ellington in Houston. It was one of the F-16's and it was a male pilot. My instructor and I got a good laugh out of that one.

It was/is the call sign for C. C. Air out of CLT, for U.S. Airways express. They are now owned by mesa.

Whipsawed and disbanded by Mesa, but the pilots have been integrated into the Mesa seniority list.
