Reserved "N" numbers available
A heads up. I have two "N" numbers reserved for the RV10 that I am going to let expire July 18, 2015; N910RV and N410JD.

I would like a short number but going to the FAA site, I cant give them a combo of starting range and trailing characters that works. Any ideas? Maybe my browser is not allowing it.

Indeed. I'm glad I obtained my short N-number before this guy came along.

No kidding. This kind of stuff is annoying.
Other than the sheer number of N-numbers, what's to prevent someone from registering them ALL (could probably write a bit of software to manage the registrations, fees, and renewals when due), and then charge sky-high prices for them?
Hmmmmm.... |

They didn't like that and fired up their lawyers and the courts sided with them. That pretty much ended that business idea.
I'll bet that if the FAA took a closer look at this, they would not be too thrilled with it.

The paperwork was really not that difficult. I got lucky about 7 years ago, and found exactly what I wanted. A few letters, forms, and just a couple of Washington's, and it was a done deal. Probably one of the easier interactions with the FAA that I have experienced.
