Enhancing SA with type-specific call signs

[DaveUnwin]

Hi All, I'm the Editor of GASCo Flight Safety Magazine, and in my most recent column I opined that situational awareness in the circuit would be enhanced if pilots used “Warrior Charlie Delta or “Skylane Charlie Delta” rather than “Golf Charlie Delta. (CAP 413 does allow this, but few pilots do it, although it's a very common procedure in the US). The piece generated the largest mailbag to the editorial office since I became Editor, and the column was subsequently picked up and reprinted by Flight Training News. I was wondering if the many pilots of PPRuNe had an opinion? Cheers, Dave
