Call Sign of Airlines

moons · Post by **moons** » 25 Mar 2005, 23:51

Hello,

I'm not sure this topic has already been opened before...
I was thinking to make a list of all airline call signs.
BA -> speedbird
TUI Belgium -> beauty ? ( I think I've read this on this site )
...

If this already happened, pls give me the link to the post. Or when there is a website which handles this topic, just link it.

Thanks
greetings, moons

Hello Moons, Nice post you started here. I think you should request that it be shifted to the Luchtzak Pub and get it labelled as STICKY.

This could be another new game

AIR FORCE United States Air Force

AIR FORCE ONE USAF - President on board

AIR FORCE TWO USAF - Vice-President on board

Hi,

Advisor,

It's up to the webmaster(s) to shift it. If they think it's better that way, well they should do it.

Thanks for all the replies and for the link Jense!

No need to shift anything. This topic is at the right place here. But feel free to start a game on callsigns in the Luchtzak pub.

Pan Am pilot's call sign was (indeed was!) CLIPPER
