“Beeline” is the callsign for Brussels airlines, so those speedbird tugs are just asking for an incident.

There’s a bizjet company with callsign “Batman” (designator EXH), another; “Gotham” (GTH).

One of the Swiss medivac crowds uses “Red Angel” (IFA).

On the subject of Speedbirds saying “the” before the callsign, most airlines have people who do that in my experience.

Anybody ever notice how many ACA pilots say “Air Canada’s 123”? I always found that an odd idiosyncrasy.

I remember coming across HiFly Malta’s callsign in the DOCs once, thought it was brilliant but have forgotten it now. Edit: It’s ”Moonraker”, although I’ve never heard it in live ops.
