Funny waypoint names

by Matthew Stibbe on March 11, 2009

I noticed that a lot of waypoints in the channel are named after famous British admirals: DRAKE, HARDY, HAWKE.  Then there’s the sequence THRED and NEDUL near the Isle of Wight.

Thanks to Flight International for the rest of these funny waypoint names.

From Australia: WONSA, JOLLY, SWAGY, CAMBS, BUYIA, BYLLA, BONGS, UNDER, ACOOL, EBARR and TREES.

From Brisbane: LEAKY, BOATS, SINNK, DRAIN and PLUGG and from Sydney: SOSIJ SIZZL.
