Callsigns

[Birdman]

I put on the table Surf n Turf andan all you can eat buffet. I will also have to take out all my competition with a knife i made entirely out of jello. So you have no choice except I.

I wish I was a girl. When is the last time a half dozen girls fought over a guy on this forum? Ohh wait, never.

Hopefully they won't have to call you "Two Bags".

hehe I thought that SI article was hilarious.

 

[Elder]

I couldn't remember where I read that... and actually, not sure what SI stands for

Sports Illustrated article.
Some guy flew with a Tomcat squadron, talks about his experiences and reaffirms the public's deep belief that Navy(and Marine) aviators are the most macho in the world.

Anyway, he filled two puke bags on the flight...hence "Two Bags."

 

[Elder]

Ah yeah, that's it.

My brother, an F-15C pilot got the callsign 'Solo' when he was flying in a group formation and he was straying just far away enough from the group that he was flying, you guessed it, Solo. I like the callsigns that emerge from f*ckups. Its better than his friend's callsign, "Ugly."

Good God you guys are cracking me up . . . keep it coming, sure beats slogging thru Navy Distance Learning!

On the (former) topic though, seems like the ones that play off your name are the ones that stick forever. Dunno if I'll carry my callsign from Mid Cruise and Stash duty on into the fleet though . . . seems to be always be generated by 0-3s and up who are actually old enough to get the joke.

Back to the original subject of this thread...
Heard of a guy getting the callsign TABB ... because he brought a rather large girl to a squadron function...so TABB is an acronym for "That's a big bitch!"...of course officially it stands for something else

 

[maverick01usn]

its funny but since high school everybody knows me as maverick and im glad for that because im already used to the name. Ill see if i can sneak my "nickname" as a callsign kind of like the movie itself!

You do realized that you will be renamed many times if you actually make it to flight school.
