What's up with all these posts??!?!?!? EV, OH, XJ...... Hello who the hell knows what airlines all the codes are for?!?!?!?
It's not like i say hey JS pilots blah blah blah. Or how i wished i worked for OO. Are you really that lazy to type out your airlines name or do you just think it's cool?

I used to hate it too, until I learned the codes. I still type the full name, though. Typing this whole F9 crap is a.net dorkiness, IMO. Just type Frontier. It's so much easier to understand.
...doesn't bother me anymore, I got used to it, ha!It's like typing "EV." Typing ASA is only one more letter, and you can type them faster since they're closer to each other than 'E' and 'V'. Geez, people.

I agree with the original poster, but I'm not as passionate about the issue. Comparing pilot acronyms is not the same. We all know was VOR & ILS stand for, only those who work for a certain company know what "B9" or whatever stands for. It's a very different thing. I don't know them all, nor do I care to learn them. If a thread starts off with some airline code (not a common acronym) that I don't know, I move on to some other thread. I think I work for CO, but I'm not sure and I don't care. I just show up and fly when they tell me.
Here's one for you guys to figure out:
Who's BTA? That's the airline code on the flight plan, not some airline computer code. Example: Continental is COA.

Does having a picture from Top Gun as your avatar make you cool?
The answer? No. It makes you look like a tool.
