Comair flight number question

[aa73]

Heard a "Comair 1632" or something like that, on the frequency the other day... I though all of your flights all started with a 4 or 5, and you only read back the last three digits. Charter?

dorky, I know... just curious.

73

And what about "Comair 52" I've heard flying around the east coast?

 

[CLE145CA]

Or the "Comair 666" I heard flying around sometime last year.

we leave off the 5 or 4, most of our flights begin with 5, historically ASA was always 4.

so since flight 5052, is call sign Comair 52.

if the flight between, CVG and OKC and CVG is 5632 and 5632, the CVG OKC is flight 632, the flight between OKC CVG is 1632, just add a "1" for the same number on a return flight.

ok?

 

[Guam360]

"666 is CVG-SDF, "1666" SDF-CVG

yes the flight from He11
