Dimsum said:Still wish that Planey McPlaneFace was on there. The real choices are Canso II, Guardian, Iris, Kingfisher and Turnstone.

Ditch said:FWIW I voted “Guardian”.
I had to sound out each name and see how it would sound doing a traffic advisory.
“Straits traffic, Snake 502, military Guardian aircraft,1,000 ft, 3 miles south of Hornby Island, southbound.”
Try that sentence with any of the proposed names and decide for yourself.
