There is also Trans Canada (Pipelines) Falcon 2000EX C-GTPL,
and their Gulfsream G150 C-FTRP. Both registrations are blocked
from Flight Tracking services. Based YYC.

Don't know if they use call signs or not??

They would use their civil reg or some other call sign e.g. construction number.

Callsign Charlie.
She is civillian, so you DO NOT Salute her. But you'd better listen to her, because the Pentagon listens to her for your performance evaluations.

Being a pilot, living in San Diego, playing Marine at Miramar, enjoying the BBQ at the Kansas City BBQ (bar scene was filmed there)
etc...


One day, just one day I'd like to make it through the end of the day without some sort of reference to such a horrible movie.

I'm about to claim to the VA, PTSD from such a horrible movie

My personal callsign is "Captain Awesome". This is how I refer to myself on the radio. Everyone knows it's me.

No, everyone thinks it's me since I use that callsign. This could be a problem.

There's a few of them... "First Officer Terrifico" doesn't seem to have a problem with it. "Copilot Gilligan" is a little lukewarm on the whole thing and "Little Buddy" has a bad attitude towards the whole idea of personal callsigns. I don't like flying with him. :rolleyes:

That would be a CF call-sign. Most likely flying a King Air out of Portage. Matrix is the call-sign that the ICP school uses...
