historical German ATC traffic

Dear Chaps (and chap-ettes),

I'm a struggling screentwriter looking for your help. I am writing a screenplay about the son of a USAF pilot stationed in USAFE Rhein-Main in the 1960's.

A helicopter pilot chum of mine who will remain nameless (thanks Andy!) suggested this website as a good place to start researching.

Unlike some films, which I imagine make you lot cringe and spill valuable beer, I would like to write the the film as accurately as possible. I want to get my facts straight and make pilots watching the film believe the action and dialogue.

Therefore I need the following, historically correct, information;

1. The possible aicraft call-signs/numberings.

2. What would be a typical and authentic exchange of dialogue between pilot and Air Traffic Controller when a F100 jet comes onto approach, finals, lands and taxis to a halt.

Please bear in mind that I am not [yet] a pilot myself - I'm looking to make a believable dialogue in a film. If you spot any fatal flaws in my questioning, please let me know where I'm going wrong!

Many thanks in advance, folks. Beer and premier tickets are the only enticements I can offer you nice people at the moment!

cheers,

James
