Mine, of course - or I would have chosen something else! An aero robot - an attempt to describe how I fly and to remind me not to get upset at the bonehead things that any of my co-workers, or ATC, or anyone else* might do.

Now as for cool names, you might not consider grumpytroll cool, however the reason I have the name: not only do I fly helicopters for a living but I also own a brewery, restaurant and pizzeria which I have mentioned on the site before. so check out www.thegrumpytroll.com.
Ah well, next time!

Art. E. Fischler-Reisen kept me awake one night with laughter when the penny dropped. 
When I first came to register on Pprune, i wanted the name Torquemada but someone else had beaten me to it.
My late mother's name was quite cool - she worked at RAE Farnborough in the 60s and called herself The Last Black Shed
Cheers

Wot's ina name?
Hats off to all pruners:-
Whos myriad of alias's make me chuckle (quite a few), think about the rational (lots)
and have genuine concerns about their wellbeing and mental state (far too many)
.
But they all show the ingenuity, imagination and humour so vital to our industry.
:
When I discovered this forum I wanted something snappy, unique and clever. OK, so I failed on all fronts! I did think of my old military handle but 'Bimbly Bob' didn't quite do it. Although it was very appropriate, hey, that's me that is
. So with 3000+ hrs on the best workhorse machine ever produced (sorry you huey guys!), it sort of fitted.
My fave has got to be 'THUD and BLUNDER' - Clever, snappy and SOOOOO ACCURATE!
Griffo. So you've got the sand out of your crack at last But sounds like you now have a nasty infestation. Keep taking the pills mate, you'll be right.

Helicopters, airplanes, and a large piece of plywood off the Santa Monica, Ca. pier into the Pacific Ocean. I have no prejudice towards anything that flys and doesn't crap on me. If I feel it's safe I'll FlyAny.
