"Brickyard" Call Sign in the Middle East
 
Isn't Brickyard a call sign for one of the RAH airlines? Recently, I have heard this call-sign spoken with an American accent while flying over Iraq. Does RAH do gov't contracts in RJ's out here? Or is it some military unit with a duplicate call-sign?

Could be these one of these guys:
BRICKYARD KC-135R 434th ARW, Grissom ARB, IN
BRICKYARD 87th ABW Command Post, McGuire AFB NJ

Or could be a brickyard pilot that used the wrong call sign. Old habits die hard.

This is true!! The RAA and that Roger Cohen guy are a cover up.

And like many U.S. airline pilots they're already whining and crying about what we and the rest of the world owes them. Unlike some we've recently purchased they actually bring something to the table - a couple of shot down and restored predators.

It's a call sign for one of the operators over there.
Not a tanker squadron as far as I know, and definitely not RAH

Republic bought Emirates! Staple job for EK and A380s for all current E170 CAs ;)
