Question by gk556: What airline or cargo airline uses the call sign “yangtze river”?
I heard it over the tower transmission here in Boston.

Best answer:

Answer by elf2002
Scenic Airlines uses YR for their ticketing, etc. so that might be Yangtze River (although in the phonetic alphabet it should be Yankee Romeo…)

So this is a stretch…it’s based out of Boulder and has charters to Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, etc…so this may not be the same.
