Poor choice in tail numbers?

[Michael Rodeback]

I saw a 727 photo once and its registration ended in Alpha-Sierra-Sierra

French Mirage 2000D’s are coded F-UG**

Code F-UCKU does not exist in the French Air Force.

Maybe there's a Mirage 2000D of french Air Force with F-Uniform Charlie Kilo Uniform (french M2000 fighters are F-Uxxx).

Maybe...
(Military OACI registrations exist but are not published....)

Canadian registrations (except ultralights) start with C-F or C-G only. Even the backwoods ones.

Indeed. That airplane is actually registered C-GMAB. They have another one, C-GTFO.

Nolinair (or some backwoods carrier up there) has a 732 C-OMFG.

Take any N-number ending with four Quebec, and then abbreviate it, but don't get phonetic on the letters...

Does ATC still abbreviate N-numbers?

In Poland there is a Cessna 182 with SP-WTF reg

While in Brazil ultralight aircraft carry the registration prefix PU. And yes, someone did register theirs PU-Sierra Sierra Yankee.

i didn't actually look into whether CFIT? was a tail number for any aircraft. i read a report about C-FITW and found it strange. nothing more.

you can go back to relaxing now

That was not my question. Why is the letter W ending this well known abbreviation any poorer than C-FITA, C-FITB,... guess you just didn‘t think of these others?

CFIT is an aviation acronym for Controlled Flight Into Terrain.
