NUMB QUESTION DU JOUR:::::::::::;

When they were both flying commercially, how would VC-10 and
DC-10 be differentiated, esp. in radio communications....

"Delta Charlie/Victor Charlie" or just "Beautiful/Ugly"?

Or maybe "Gorgeous/Fat"..........

I may be a Murkin, but I calls 'em how I sees 'em!

Dan4th

Never! Never! Never! liked the DC-10.

[Saracenman]

i imagine Danf that the a/c type had/has little to do with any callsign - for example, in BOAC/BA days, any VC10 flight would have the age-old callsign "Speedbird"

as for DC10 - i completely agree! not that I'm a Tristar fan, but they are far the superior aeroplane in many respects. but then as a Lockheedophile, I'm certain that you agree!

[Dan4th]

Yeah, I know about the a/c type, etc.

Just one of my pathetic attempts at "humo(u)r".

So then, how about "Speedbird"/"Lardbucket"?

Has a certain ring to it, no?

I'm reliably informed that one or two of these can be found...

Well, EYE believe that if Murkins were all as STOOPID as you Limeys like to
believe we are, then..........

NOPE! Not going to say it. Wouldn't be nice.

[Saracenman]

every rule has its exceptions

[Stevieboy]

No offence intended Mr W.

Just for a bit of balance:

Mister Smith!

Well, of course there was always Bertie Wooster!

I wasn't really angry, but you've got to admit that we Murkins are
very often the targets of Brit "Humo(u)r" as being somewhat less
than sentient as a people. Much as I enjoy your Mr. Clarkson, he
too often takes us to task by using stereotypes that never existed
in the first place! Of course, the audience loves it, and I suppose
he can be forgiven -- up to a point! I might make fun of you guys
from time to time, but it's never a Cheap Shot!

The saving grace is that neither of our cultures has yet to corner
the market on dim-witted cluelessness. I leave THAT to the EU
Aviation Authority! Actually, I always thought that it was the Brits
who INVENTED cluelessness and then licensed it to us Murkins at a
profit! I mean, credit where due, here!!!!!!!!!!!
