here are some other funny registrations...

lh a321 D-AIRY

AZ 767 I-DEID

Egyptair a300 SU-GAR

F-LYON aero lyon dc-10

OK-FIT 737.

I think Easyjet should open up shop in Turkmenistan .Hell, they'd probably not get much business but imagine the registrations...EZ-JET and EZ-JOB!

OK here are a few more:

Cabair has a twin used for IR tests - G-TEST

G-TIGR is a Puma heli.

G-ZOOM is a learjet

G- WENT is a jetstream...possibly with a sister craft G-GONE...?

G-UNDY - only if you want to show them

G-SSHH and G-SSSH are BAe 146's - perhaps those type-rated might like to comment on that one.

G-LION is a piper cub and my favourite is the cargo 747 G-KILO.

Finally, G-HIHO perhaps run by 7 short guys....

OK, I'll put my little notebook back in my anorak pocket now.....!!!

Talking Was it...............

Mr Brendish?

Who flew the English Channel inverted in the Chippy G-IDDY?

Is it a 150/152 or 172 regn G-OTEK (or may be G-OTEC)

If Trigger would come out of the closet and post his pic of I-MUFF and I-DIVE along side each other, priceless.

Not type rated, due to not being a pilot They are Sshh, except when the flaps are in transit.

G-IDDY now resides at Vacaville in Northern California and is owned by Sean de Rosier who is converting it to a 2 seat super chipmunk in tribute to Art Scholl.

Sad thing is that you can't polish a turd !

On a more basic line, one of Premiair's DC10's was registered OY-CNT. Sadly it died at Bournemouth in 2001.

G-RAIL

G-RAIL, another HAB, used to be operated on behalf of Railfrieght. It isn't yet porous enough to qualify as "holy" (think about it )
