Some callsigns stick in your memory.
Indeed so. Only used a M**** c/s once, when one was a baby Wessex pilot in Sharjah. We held the Command spare aircraft, and on this occasion we had to deliver it to Muharram for the SAR Flight when they were all u/s.

C/s was MBFMN, remembered to this day as it was at the time as "Muharraq Bound For Monday Night".

That was the same trip when on return - by Argosy - the mover wouldn't let me take my Mae West on board as it was Dangerous Air Cargo. No mini flares, just the CO2 bottle that made it work!!!! Compressed gas cylinder he sez..........
