Hey Lynx, Whats with the call sign?

[Trogdor]

I thought Lynx should have gone with "Animal."

 

[35khighpjc]

Well as an L4er, the word around the office was they were going around for either a Colorado theme or something mountain or nature like...examples:

Whitetail
Southpark
Aspen

Then somehow, we come up with a mountain...but it was in a state that our division of F9 doesn't serve...whatever float's their L4 boat I guess.

Whitetail is not really an animal that is indigenous to Colorado. It would be more like Mule Deer. That would be a cool callsign.

...Would have been perfect. Anyway I heard that Shasta was literally the last one on the list they submitted to the feds. How it even made the list is beyond me. Probably the CP's dog or something.

 

[Trogdor]

If they wanted a Colorado theme, how about "Elbert" after the tallest peak in the state.

 

[epic!]

Who comes up with these titles? Might as well let the pilots vote on these things too.

 

[sperfly]

I've always liked Warpig as a call sign.

I'm afraid the FA's union might have something to say about that one.

Yeah your probably right.

 

[say again]

That they are...

HAHAHAHA!!!!!!:laugh:

 

[better up here]

How 'bout a Fresca?

GREAT with tequila mixed about 50/50 and a bit of lime.

 

[Skaz]

Shasta is some mountain somewhere...in California I think.

Word is it'll change in due course due to FAA confusion.

 

[regionaltard]

Was "Scat" already taken? Goes pretty good with the whole animal thing, don't you think?

 

[STREAKS]

I hear "Manchowder" was in the running.

 

[relief tube]

Having to say "shasta" all the time, AND getting paid horribly ($50 for CA and 21 for F/O's).....enough reason to not even consider that place.

Sorry for trolling on the regional boards boys, but when I read this guy's statement and then looked at his profile, I laughed up some beer out of my nose. Hahahaha

No kidding. There's a guy in the other thread, quite possibly from the CalEx PFT generation based on his profile, slinging mud about the Lynx rates too. Let he that is without sin...
