Funny Mele-Kaliki-Maka and Air "Barge" KLAX 12-25-09
« on: December 26, 2009, 12:56:11 AM »
Who says it right Hawaiian pilot or controller? When the controller said air barge I almost spit my coffee out. I thought it was funny!

Thanks

Speedotann,
 Nice catch!.  There are many ATC that say hello/goodbye  and wish holiday greetings to some foreign carriers in their native language at LAX......but I haven't heard it in Hawaiian!   Nice!

Was that Delta flight following an A380?  That is kind of a  funny nickname if it was. " Air Barge"

Merry Christmas!

I never heard them say "super". Qantas is the only 380 operator at Lax... It wasn't quantas... I am not sure what it was.. Thanks, I thought it was unique also.

I've heard "Air Barge" before, usually when referring to an Airbus freighter, FedEx usually. The operate the A310 and A300 at KLAX.

Airbarge...Airbus... :lol:

The only airplane currently designated a "Super" is the A380.

That's pretty funny. First time I heard ATC say Merry Christmas in Hawaiian. They just need to work on the pidgin accent a little.  :-D

Hey CL, since I got you to say the "Mele-Kaliki-Maka" for Christmas, we're going to have to work on your "Allloooooooooohhhhhaaaaaaaaa" for all the rest of the Hawaii flights. haha
