Call signs are usually rendered based on 3 criteria:..(this according to my brother who was a fighter jock..call sign "Stoney") Something that you did Something about the way you look or a play on words on your name... Hence, call signs such as "Unibrow" self explanatory, "Bush"...the guy was drunk and fell into some hedges, "Bambi"....cause the guy hit a deer while driving, and one of my favorites.."Slush"....the guy thought he was so cool that he wanted his call sign to be "Iceman"...but his fellow pilots didn't think he was cool enough....and of course...we have here at Moe's.."Pinetree".....I guess that one speaks for itself too...lol and there was a story written by Rick Reilly who wrote for Sports Illustrated and took a ride in an F14 Tomcat...its hilarious.....

That sounds just about how every orientation and fam ride we ever gave a civilian or celebrity.

Smart, focused and beautiful but not a fighter jock. linkWell, if not now she is working on it. I do not take anything away from her. I did just see her talk on news and she did say she is not yet a fighter pilot but a Fighter Pilot Selectee.
