Do the Combat Sents use Hawg as a callsign when operating from MLD like the Rivet Joints, or do they use something different?

Hi Ben,

They'll use Hawg 95 if they are on crew training but if on operational flights the callsigns will be different each time. I've heard the likes of Junk, Party and Epic in the last few years.

Thanks for the regular posts and updates too by the way.

14849 I suspect.
Come to think of it I don't suspect it was '49, I know it was.
Only joking, shame it wasn't 847.
Cheers, Stig.
