Who chooses a name?
Was fortunate enough to have a couple of hours spare this afternoon so I popped into Hendon.
The forward fuselage of XM717, "Lucky Lou" got me thinking, who gets the honour of naming the aircraft?
I'm led to believe it was usually the skipper (possibly from Enola Gay theory), but in a multi crew environment where there would be several skippers for a single frame who calls the tune?
Not sure Mrs Duchess would be overly impressed if I'd arrived home one evening having christened my chariot "Lusty Linda"!
