Why did you pick your N Number ?

[g zero]

Triple six , has a nice ring to it . TA are my initials . Far from believing in bad numbers , besides I have 13 lucky rabbits feet to offset the 666!

I work for SWA, our airline identifier is WN. Most of the planes end in WN. The first 700 series came with a N number that started with 703WN. A senior mechanic put his initials on the first two 700 airplane we got It's N700GS. I think SWA paid for my build. My N number therefore is N700WN

I'm building a 10 so I wanted something with a 10 in it. I flew for Eastern Airlines until it died and the B-757 is the most fun airliner I've flown. I found N510EA, a former EAL B-757, and it filled all the criteria. "Five Ten Echo Alpha", I like it. Now all I have to do is build!

N3773 when inverted, spells my wife's name [BIG points].

The new "low and slow" bird is a Rans S12. I have a partner in it with the last name of Byrne.

So, went looking for something ending in BS or SB. And hopefully the number 12 also.

Found 512BS was out there available-----------quick glance and you might just see it as S12BS.

Got it in reserve

7/30 is the wife's birthday :-)
The 'RV' in the tail number was a must for me .

N930RV
so who's birthday is in September?

N249RV

* Wanted numbers/letters with few syllables, easier to say
* Wanted something vaguely reminiscent of California (born and live here)
* Wanted 9RV if possible since that's what I'm building

These wishes contradict somewhat (Romeo Victor is not short) but this is the result.

I wanted the shortest (in syllables) that I could find, and a 10 in there would be good too. So I saw N102FM, and considering 'fox' is an acceptable truncation of 'foxtrot' , it looks like a radio station, and then there's the Flying Monkeys story. Possible tail flash:

I had reserved N 442 KS and N 442 M for the nine we are building and to remember the car I had in my younger days. Since that really did not make any sense on the nine I will be releasing those numbers in November and December for anyone interested.
