I'm quite fond of BA's Speedbird. Hearing "Air Shuttle" makes me shiver

Another vote for Speedbird - but only when it's spoken in a proper British accent.

I've always thought AirNet's "Starcheck" sounded strange.

I usually follow an Air France call with the customary "Ribbit" on the radio... most captains and controllers get a kick out of it. One time the AF guy came back and lightheartedly said "Well, MOOO to you, Texans!"
Ahh... all in good fun!
