The online register G-INFO now shows the "old" G-GBNI as G-GBNIX, to distinguish it from the current one.

Yes, that's SOP, see previous posts.

Slightly ironic that the current G-GBNI's former Bermuda reg VP-BTNP was previously allocated to an A319. Presumably G-GBNI had this temporarily when DVB Bank hadn't got a lease customer for it.

This source shows VP-BTP as a previous registration, VP-BTN currently being worn by an Azerbaijan A320N. Bermudan registrations are re-used anyway, so I'm not sure where the irony lies.

Liffy-being very picky but the people on the island are like that -its BermudIan with a letter 'I' and said Bermudjan by most of them.

They had a mass cyber attack /ransome ware incident there last week could that impact their aviation registration business at. Also considering its a tiny place the airport is about 10% of the entire country, is registering aircraft in places like that just a financial device . Surely a G- reg gets more oversight than VP does?

Happens closer to home; 'M' reg are registered in the Isle of Man but only for 'private' aircraft some of which are not small; likewise a 'ZJ' reg is Jersey and following on, a '2' is Guernsey. Some of these are transferred from 'G' reg aircraft but some have been transferred from Bermuda or Bahamas reg. and both tend to be based in the UK rather than IoM or Jersey eg VPBLS (itself originally VRBLS), a PC12 owned by Mr B Schroder/Schroders Bank was based at Fairoaks and when 'M' registrations were introduced it was changed to MYBLS.
Corrected version

Mea culpa. BTN was a typo, BTP was also used by an S7 Siberia A319. irony was probably the wrong word, I was mildly amused this was the second time the airframe has had a reused reg.

Chevvron you have got your Iles Anglo Normands confused 2- is Guernsey. Jersey's register used ZJ- but closed in 2022 I believe only four aircraft were ever registered.

Thanks, I'll change the above.

Wasn't G-OCAA on more than one aircraft?

I guess it's one rule for us and another for them!

Not according to G-INFO... owned by Lynton Aviation for 10 years between 1992 and 2002.

You may be thinking of G-CCAA which was registered to the CAA from December 1982 until September 1987.

I recall G-EASI being used on an Eastern Airways Shorts 330, the marks had previously been worn by a Vickers Vimy!

I see G-EAGL was also reused. Alliance P2 Seabird, then a Cessna 421 (naturally!).

Seems the old G-GBNI (G-GBNIX) was involved in a serious incident departing Stansted post-government conversion back to regular Titan use. Current reg is G-OATW.
