About the "MILE-AIR" Callsign
When 40-Mile Air pilots communicate with air traffic control, they identify themselves using the radio callsign "MILE-AIR" followed by the flight number spoken in aviation pronunciation. For example, flight 456 would be "MILE-AIR Four Five Six." Radio callsigns are assigned by ICAO and are distinct from the airline's marketing name.
