Globe callsign
 

I hear this callsign a lot (JMC??) and it is pronounced defferently in different countries.

The UK say Globe (as in robe)

Spain say Glob (as in blob)

Should the correct pronunciation be Globee (as in Mr Blobby)?

No. What makes you think that ?

Oh and who are JMC Airlines ?????

It's Thomas Cook / TCX (I think) - at least according to the excel file I have with various airlines, callsigns as well as ICAO & IATA codes.

According to Stavros & Co down in Athens and surrounding areas, it's "Glub"....

:p

expedite_climb,

There was an airline called JMC
Having problems with its identity.
"JMC - what on earth is that?"
"Its named after the boss's little brat!"

The board had fallen into the trap
of believing what they had wasn't Just More Crap.
So the name was changed to Thomas Cook
In the hope that more passengers would book.

They also needed a callsign to replace
JMC which was now out of place.
One suggested using the callsign "Wayne"
But is was dismissed as being too vain.

The board were all believers
In paying homage to great achievers.
So they all agreed to name it after Mr Blobby
And adopted a new callsign pronounced "Globee"

I am who I am.....
 

Nice one!

:p

Harsh, but fair!!

:)

Hmmm, you could say I walked straight into that.....

Gotta admit, few years ago i really thought it was just more c, but its a better these days !

LOL :O A poet and you didn't know it

At EGPF, they're affectionatly known a TIXYLIX, our great Yorkshire controller can't help himself when he sees TCX in the strip.

Maybe he's had a bit too much of the cough medicine
:yuk: :yuk: :yuk:

Maybe just not enough "Berry's" to keep his vitamins up!!!!!!!!

Assuming it is the same yorkshireman, has he been let off the leash yet????!!!!!!
