Re: Name that plane!

Nice twist, but we're looking for a plane name, not a team name.

Doug likes mine: The Flying Liebermann

Easy theme, we all walk around and be dicks to everyone, yanking wristbands.

Re: Name that plane!

I gotta go with my gut. As soon as Doug said "The Spirit Of Lemons", it clicked for me. It works on several levels too.

It's been oficially named. Thanks for the other suggestions!

If you claim to The Spirit of Lemons, I lay claim to "His Effluency"*.

Aw rats, Speedy - I came in too late to suggest Songbird:

May I at least suggest Team Sky King? Most famous 310 I can think of.

And of course there are the flightless birds, Emu, Ostrich, Penguin, Kiwi.

Or if you must (sigh), raise your bic lighter and sing along:

The real question is, who is working on the Jay Lamm nose art?

Bummer.  I'm too late to suggest ICKarus.  It would be especially fitting if you used a Taurus donor vehicle.
