Question PH-LXK - I dare to ask again...

I am still a little mystified by a flight I made just under a year ago, from Amsterdam to Bremen. We travelled KLM Cityhopper onboard a Fokker 50. I am CERTAIN that I read the reg off as PH-LXK but I can find no evidence that this aircraft has flown for KLM Cityhopper. The date I flew on it was 2nd April 2002, as flight KL1755. I was just wondering whether anyone has access to any KLM systems or people who might be able to put my mind at rest, and stop me thinking I am insane.

Many thanks! Please forgive me for bringing something so OLD up again!

Leon *Going insane?*

Just to muddy the water, there are also pics on airliners.net of it carrying the G reg as far back as 1996.

www.airlinerlist.com, which is usually pretty accurate, reckons it went onto the G register 14 Oct 1994 and has been with KLM UK since (except for the current merger, obviously).

I suppose, had it been on lease, it MAY have been re-registered and MAY have carried the original reg, but your PH-LXK MIGHT just be another aircraft too.

The lads at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/civil-spotters could probably sort this out.

Leon,

If KLMuk hasn't returned the G-UKTF into the Dutch register it's not possible you've flown this aircraft (most liley the PH-JXK). The Dutch register doesn't allow an registration to be used for another aircraft.

Given that currently PH-LXK doesn't exist in the Dutch register I reckon you flew the PH-JXK.
