Aircraft Nicknames! Lets hear em'!

CRJ-200- canadian space shuttle

A320 series- Fifi, Tolouse Lawnmower, short bus

A330- mega poodle

C-152- lawnmower with wings
 
C210-lumber wagon. Crappiest flying airplane I've ever flown. At least in bent up freight form. Hauled a metric poop ton(which is a lot) though.

I always called the Baron the "LeBaron", or the "ChryZler".

I was talking to an older guy that had a nickname for the BE99. "9X9". Not sure what that means...

Saab 340 - weed whacker

Speaking of public opinion, I was flying out of Erie one morning in the Saab and ended up waiting for a few pax at the bottom of the steps. There was an old couple starting to go up the stair and the wife turns to her husband and asks if this thing is safe, it has propellers. The husband, without missing a beat, says oh yes, it has four blades. The three bladed ones are the dangerous ones. I was doing all I could not start laughing.

No, but those support the stereotype :) They called it the clownjet when I went through (and before), well before the centennial and all the goofy paintjobs. Orange and white clowny paintjobs
