jeeze! There goes another thief. I paid about 20 for the game. I've flown over 500 total hours. $20 divided by 500 hrs = 4 pennies an hour. thats peanuts.

Flying with twins is a lot of fun..

B...its period of registration...

Not necessarily. The British civil register started with G-EAAA in 1919. It ran to G-EBZZ and then started again at G-AAAA. It reached G-CBAA in 2001. The G is the only mandatory letter. Providing they haven't already been issued you can choose almost any registration letters you like these days.

G-BPLF was actually a hot-air balloon. It was built in 1989 & the registration was cancelled in 2004. According to CAA regulations it can't be re-issued so you're free to use it. Wink
