BELL 206 DATA PLATE with Log Books
If you look at the ebay sellers page and check other items for sale by seller, there is a whole list of parts from a Bell 206 Jetranger (including the log book and data plate). There are pictures of blue doors from a Jetranger, and a blue tail fin/boom..... I know that sceme but a present cannot put my finger on which one it is ! There are also log books and a data plate for an Agusta Bell 206 Jetranger. Other itmes are for Longranger doors and many Bell 47 parts.
The penny has finally dropped with the doors and the colour scheme I saw it as G-SOOR which became G-RIAN and then had an accident as G-OJEF (This is the AB206). The owner when it was G-RIAN also now owns N9422 and has also owned a Bell 47. So its not hard to find out who this is !
have a looksee at WWW.Hansen-Helicopters.com for the full story on dodgy data plates on death traps.

Aircraft burns to a crisp in a forest fire. Data plate removed and exchanged with that from a low-time leased aircraft. Owner of leased aircraft informed his aircraft was burned in a forest fire. Easy scam as the only things not burned beyond recognition are the turbine and transmission and TR gearbox gears. I remember a 206 that crashed and burned…the wreckage was a light sling load that fit in the back of a pickup with room to spare.
Aircraft with high serial number crashes. Data plate placed on low serial number aircraft. Quick way. to rebuild your aircraft and you now have a high SN. AKA “A Four Rivet Rebuild.”
