Pilot Chick!
« on: February 20, 2007, 12:45:19 PM »
Well, I thought I might start this thread off. ;D  First off, I have a bad feeling Chuck will end up in the hospital.  And second, keep up the good work!

Since the it said the pilot didn't have a name yet, how about we think up of the many possibilities! ::thinking::

I say Linda or Christina.

I vote for Lucy. Following the precedent set by Mike with "Panaca Jane", we have just named our helicopter "Lucy". We are on a prescribed fire contract currently in Fort Payne, Alabama. Watch for more about the "adventures of Lucy.........

Mmmm and why not an Italian name? I suggest Alessandra (why? just 'cause it's my name in the female form :P ). The short-form Alex would be ok too

Thanks for getting it, Tundra!  ;)
I was afraid nobody would catch on and I thought it was a really clever joke my little bro made there. . . .

I can see a few strips out of the Lucy and Diamonds bit....


But, Charlie Brown already has a Lucy character and I'd probably stay clear of that if possible.....  :-\

Just don't let her hang a sign on the plane saying "Rides $0.05, the Pilot is IN" and you'll be fine.   ::cowboy::

Naming conventions.

As far as pilot's names go, it HAS to be short and sweet!  Alessandra is a really pretty name, don't get me wrong, but it's got too many syllables!  Of course, that just means you'd always go by "Alex" at the airport, and no one would actually know your full name.   ::rofl::

Every pilot I know has a name that is 2 or fewer syllables, can have their name pronounced in 2 or fewer syllables, or has just been given a nickname, and no one knows what their actual name is.

Some of the pilot's I actually know the names of:
Chris
Aaron
Gray
"Tiny" (No idea what his real name is.)
Seymour
Rachel

And some of the famous pilot names:
*Patty Wagstaff
*Amelia Earhart (Most complicated name I know.)
*Bob Hoover
*Charles Lindbergh

Honestly, Lucy would be a winner.  If you'd really like to avoid that name, then I would suggest Chandelle.    ::thinking::  Yeah, that's a total cheeseball suggestion.   ::rofl:: Oh well.

I like lucy but........since chuck reminds about chuck yager (or I'm the only one who tought about it?  ???), probably amelia would be more right!

You could add an Aussie Flavor and name her Nancy after one of our most famous female aviators, Nancy Bird-Walton  ;D
