LONDON -- So the news broke Thursday morning that British Prime Minister David Cameron is getting his own special plane for official trips.
As we all know, however, a good plane is nothing without a memorable name. Luckily it wasn't long before people on Twitter had come up with a suggestion or two.
David Cameron to get his own plane. Air Force Camerone? Cam Fly With Me? This is a struggle.— Declan Cashin (@Tweet_Dec) November 19, 2015
Can we petition to have David Cameron’s new plane named ‘Spirit of Austerity’?— rodti macleary (@rodti) November 19, 2015
Things escalated quickly.

Unsurprisingly, quite a few people had pig-themed suggestions.
. @rodti @DocHackenbush I'm new to your politics but if "When Pigs Fly" isn't a contender, nothing makes sense. #DavidCameron— Dane Rauschenberg (@SeeDaneRun) November 19, 2015
The US president has Air Force One. What name should we give Cameron's plane? I humbly suggest "Air Pork One". #cameronsplane— DocHackenbush (@DocHackenbush) November 19, 2015

There was even speculation over the design.
