An ex mil acquaintance retired and bought himself a Mazda MX-5. The registration he put on it was Y1 CBA. When asked about it (the car was newer than a Y reg) he laughingly told everyone it stood for “Why I Can’t Be Ar$€d”.

I saw VC10JAG in Southrop a couple of years ago and I think the owner frequents this forum.

It's written on the wall. For a good time, call.

A neighbour in the 90s had a white Toyota Supra with the reg 'A10 JET'.

A retired Flight Test Engineer from Warton still drives his car with the reg F3 ADV.. Also a sadly deceased member of flight ops had on his car T10 CTP.

Haven’t been on PPRUNE for a while but came across this thread last night and it got me thinking of suitable plates for Ex Herc mates…some of which have already been mentioned (C130 ENG, C130 NAV, OC70 LXX etc etc.). Then by some completely random coincidence I was driving through Addingham, near Skipton, today and plate on the car in front was 47 SF!

Remember seeing that last one on a large Merc in a car park at Heathrow many years ago. Remember thinking "did I really just see that!"

Could have brought EX06 RAF from an ex Tinopener mate selling for charity. Wife said no. Not that sad to do so.

On one of my tours on 617 Sqn, we received a letter offering A617NAV.

Seen near the local hospital: NUR51E

During my commute from Medmenham to HQSTC I would often see a Porsche 911 reg 911 EGO.
