Unusual airline call signs

[Full of LUV]

Out in the islands....

Out in Hawaii, I personally find the callsign, "speed buggy" pretty funny but not sure who uses it.

I know the AF active duty folks fly around in PACOM's C40 with the gayest of callsigns "Mango 01" all the time as they practice those precision approaches into Hilo.
I would have changed that callsign years ago....

I like "Average Cargo" and "Yellow Cab" every time I flew into FRA. I don't think "Waterski" sounds dumb, better than "jet..." or "air..."!

That's Mokulele's Caravan operation. Usually hear them just get called "Bugger".

"Windy City" for Chicago Express, I always liked that one.

Southwest sounds cool!

CACTUS callsign WAY better

"Speedbird" has to do with one of BA's predecessor airlines (BOAC) that had a bird as their logo.

Goes back further than that. Originally belonged to Imperial Airways.

The one I like best is 'springbuck'??? something like that...Can't remember which carrier that is.

How could you guys leave out VA = 'redwood'?

(And yes, I get that they are based near Redwood City, CA)

No, it's because when you pop the virgins cherry you get a red woody, get it. Branson is a sick pervert.

Always like "Dynasty", I think it is Air China out of Taiwan.
