About the "AIR KUBAN" Callsign
When Kuban Airlines pilots communicate with air traffic control, they identify themselves using the radio callsign "AIR KUBAN" followed by the flight number spoken in aviation pronunciation. For example, flight 456 would be "AIR KUBAN Four Five Six." Radio callsigns are assigned by ICAO and are distinct from the airline's marketing name.
