Airplane Nicknames

[airxn]

Hey all,

I was told to "Follow the Guppy" at work, which obviously meant the Boeing 737. This got me wondering what other nicknames were out there for other planes. In my search i found a site that has a ton of them turned into cool airplane stickers. http://www.aviationalias.com

Some are pretty dang funny, some creative. But there are so many out there i was wondering if you guys have come across any that are funny etc.

fire away!

Hahaha, awesome site!! They seem really easy to work with too. I sent them an email asking for a custom sticker for the 747 and "Whale" and they made it right away, I bought two of them, thanks for the idea!

As far as other nicknames, i've heard the 757 as "Long Legs, Big Tits"

The Cessna Skymaster has had several nicknames:

Huff & Puff
Push-me-pull-you
Mix Master

[RobertSubnet]

Surprised the "Trauma-hawk" was not on there.

Back in the late 1980s I heard the Skymaster called Mixmaster on the airwaves more than once! Once it was called that by the owner by accident, but then the chuckling kept that name alive in that sector!
