This reminds me of a funny exchange I had not long ago. 2 airplanes on freq a PC12 and an MD80 late one dead weekend night. "Hey approach, question if you have time (no callsign given)" Me: "XYZ1234 go ahead" XYZ1234 "Yeah I was just wondering if...wait, how'd you know it was me?" Me: "XYZ1234 I've got two airplanes, a PC12 and an MD80 on frequency and you don't sound like there is a prop in front of you". Moments later with a funny sound in the background and this time a different voice "Approach are you showing any weather on our route?" Me: "Negative XYZ1234". XYZ1234 "Howd you know it was me?" Me: "The PC12 pilot is a woman sir, by the way what was that funny sound in the background?" XYZ1234 "I put my FO to work." Thats when I realized the funny sound was a person flapping their lips imitating a prop spinning.
