The transport pilot will radio a ID message to the control tower. He'll say: "The eagle ate a peanut butter and jelly sandwich".

Is this acceptable?
21-12-2003, 16:44
they'll be over at aprox 1150 hours if you mean their call sign, theyre alpha-romeo one. if you mean the small image on the side of the plane its a dove with an olive branch

sorry but the plane was delayed from taking off due to adverse weather conditions. it is entering your airspace now

6 F-22's take off to escort the airplane into Arribastani airspace. one sends a transmission to the cargo plane. "head to runway 23 of Henderson airforce base. there you will find your airplanes fueled and ready."

Upon reviewing the impressive capabilities of the SU-37 K variant, we would like to purchase the entire remaining surplus to recoup the SU-37 carrier craft we lost recently aboard the CNC Stalwart. Transaction is completed upon confirmation.

I trust everything went along smoothly? If so the planes should be on their way to our waters now, I haven't the time to check whether they're fine, as we have internal problems at the moment.

the plane had a smooth landing and the crew and extra pilots disembarked. making their way over to the hangers where the planes are, the crew of the transport plane asks the people in the control tower if they would be kind enough to refuel the plane

Flying them in-land would be appreciated, although you will receive an escort, as we are embroiled in conflict. While we need and can afford all the planes, we have decided to buy only 400 in the spirit of fair trade, leaving 75 craft for other nations. Transaction complete.
