I was on duty that day and can testify that it isn't an urban myth. DA082 called up north of Perth and said "Good morning Aberdeen it's the fu

This took the controller somewhat by surprise but he was even more shocked when the pilot kept referring to his flight as "fu
ing Dan Air 082".
When he finally plucked up courage to ask the pilot why he was using a non-standard callsign, he was asked to listen to the ATIS. There in the background, but as clear as a bell was another controller saying "Where is the fu
ing Dan Air 082"!
