The JSTARS aircraft over Libya are being given "Cylon" callsigns. :haha:

One reason to hope the Cylons really are involved in Libya: the war might finally have a Plan (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1286130/).

LOL. :har:

Except that I'm not sure the Cylons ever did have a plan.

Sadly, it has been reported that the JSTARS aircraft are not, repeat NOT, crewed by Six copies. :cry:

I'll settle for a Three.

A C-130 guy I know from another forum had this to say about it:

We used 'Daddy' for years until some dickweed at al Udied decided it was too racy to listen to the British female AWACS controllers say "Goodnight, Daddy!" We liked it. I guess you can get away with cylon. Damned PC policies.
