G-FISH and G-CHIP, owned at one point by somebody food related... (Ramsdens maybe? I can't recall - you'd see them around North England).

As well as G-BOLX mentioned above, there is also G-BLLX.

Saw a Ryanair 737 called EI-CNT. Some might say apt for MOL.

I remember a PH-ART some years ago. I think it was a motorglider. I-PIST also rings a bell.

As for intersections, look at my username for a good 'un.

Taildragger,

G-ROWL is actually a Grumman Tiger (what else!), used to be with Cabair at Blackbushe a few years ago when I was flying there.

They had G-PAWS aswell, another AA5.

I flew a tomahawk from Cumbernauld some time back, reg was either G-OOAL or G-OAAL, either way it just needed an exclamation mark on the end and would be ideal for a football lover.

Just looked on G-INFO, can confirm it was G-OAAL

With no disrespect intended.....

I seem to remember a lighty that used to get around S.E. Queensland VH-UFO.

I believe it crashed, but there was no government cover up (that we know of!)

There used to be a C172 that carried G-SEXI. Unfortunately someone pranged it into a tree.

Speaking of Trees, there's a bell 206 registered G-TREE at Fairoaks. Hope that's not an omen.

For the scots out there one of the BA concordes is G-BOAB. The utlimate expression of manhood?

In the 80’s the Selangor Flying Club, Kuala Lumpur, bought a Piper (?) through the Singapore company I was then with. It was with the club for some nine months before someone realised the reason for its very low usage.

The registration was 9M-ATI.

Mati is Malay for ………death.

Babcock HCS have a Shorts Skyvan, G-PIGY. Rather appropriate for such a beautiful a/c.
