Reg
I've got a window shot from southwest flight 1196 MDW to IAD on the 31st of Oct but I forgot to look at the Reg # of the aircraft. Is there a web site I can go to find out what reg was used that day. Everything I have found just shows the aircraft type.
Thanks
Pat

Quote from the upload guideline:
If you do not have the reg info please leave the reg box blank examples such as - G-BM??, N4*****, UNKNOWN and so on will not be accepted.
In your case, the flight was operated by N9629H

AA 386 ORD-LGA Rego reqd
Hi all,
Greetings from India. I'm looking to upload an Interior Shot of an AA MD-8X aircraft. But i'm absolutely clueless about the Rego. The Flt was operated as AA 386 ORD-LGA on 07/22/2008. Can anybody suggest how to go about with the upload? Is it fine if i put N***** in the Reg field?
Thanks in advance.

AJ - what about new build aircraft like P51's? etc these often carry NC or NL yet were built in the last few years. At EAA this year there was a 2004 built replica of a Stearman 4E - it was carrying a NX reg (NX623YT iirc) yet is a new airframe and appears in FAA database as such. Just trying to get my head around this situation which has not been an issue (for me) before.

They are valid, just not supported in the online database. It only applies to pre-1948 aircraft:
These airworthiness indicators were; "C" for standard, "R" for restricted, "X" for experimental, and later an "L" for limited, (for example, NC1234). This was standard until December 31, 1948, when aircraft registered for the first time were required to display identification marks consisting of only the Roman capital letter "N" followed by the registration number.

AJ, thanks for that - is it a recent change ? as there are quite a few aircraft carrying NC & NL in the database already but the info shows N- only. The FAA database also ignores the 2nd letter and to me should be the ultimate authority on how N- are displayed.

Hi Paul, the database standard is to list them as it appears on the aircraft. Please include NL or NC.

N Regs
Hi,
N reg vintage aircraft / warbirds often carry NCxxxx or NLxxx etc but the FAA database normally ignores this 2nd letter. I have uploaded a P51C which carries NL61429 but is actually N61429 and this is what I used as the reg so I was quite surprised to receive a rejection for 'bad info - registration'. I have appealled this rejection as I believe the screener made a genuine error - there are plenty of aircraft carrying NL & NC regs that are shown as Nxxxx

More Terrafugia Category Questions
Thanks for the quick reply, AJ, but my confusion starts before that point. Should I use "General Aviation", "Manufacturer", or "Other"? And then, which subcategory?
Again, the plane is the prototype and displays the manufacturer's name (Terrafugia) in several places. I submitted Terrafugia as a manufacturer under the "Aircraft" menus. Do I need to do the same under "Airline"?
Thanks again,
Mark

Info for Terrafugia Transition?
I'm unsure of how to categorize the prototype Terrafugia Transition roadable airplane and would appreciate the correct classifications for uploading. (It's marked in several places with "Terrafugia" if that matters as far as a manufacturer's color scheme.)
Thanks,
Mark
