    All the Riddle callsigns brought me back to flight school there, talk about barely controlled chaos. ATC was always on top of things though.

    Wow, so that is what it looks like when you can get airborne before the crossing runway. I’ve flown out of PRC for the last 14 years. And never have I ever been airborne before that runway. I’ve always seen the golfers clapping and raising their drivers as we go overhead.

      I’ve only been a resident of AZ for about a year and a half actually! 😂 I’m a Michigan native, but we have our fair share of towns that people don’t pronounce correctly, so I guess that’s me trying my best to not screw it up lol.

    Mirage or Malibu?
    Mirage in title and @:43 on the aircraft and during video introduction, yet most radio calls were “Malibu”.
    I am confused.

      The airplane is considered the Malibu/Mirage. Same airframe, just modernized. Malibu rolls off the tongue better in radio calls

      It’s considered a Malibu/Mirage. Same airframe, just updated over time. I just think Malibu rolls off the tongue a little better in ATC calls
