Whats your traffic control callsign?

Postby smartroad » Tue Apr 26, 2016 7:03 pm

So with 2.1/1.6 we get a traffic controller helping to direct us at starports. From what I understand the first 3 letters of your commander name are used to make your callsign (along with the ship manufacturer of your ship). The letters are then converted using the phonetic alphabet (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NATO_phonetic_alphabet) so my callsign will be:

Lima Alpha Sierra

So what's your going to be? :D

I suppose mine would be Gutamaya Sierra Alpha Bravo because I'm flying about in my Imperial Eagle right now.

Damn! Wish I had a cool one like X-Ray Echo Bravo (or even Whiskey Tango Foxtrot)!

Unfortunately, mine will be Charlie Romeo India Foxtrot? I'm assuming Foxtrot for Faulcon-deLacy? Or would it be Charlie-Romeo-India-Foxtrot-Delta?

Man, that's a mouthful!

Golf - Romeo - Alpha

Don't like it, I may have to create a long rage quit thread on the Frontier Forum. Yeah that will work

I think yours will be Faulcon-deLacy, Charlie Romeo India.


Mine will be Romeo Oscar Golf.

I assume any special symbols will be parsed out, but they will probalby keep numbers.
It's time to give this another go.
