I know we can use NX, but what are the rules re the numbers and letters following. what is the minimum number of numbers we can use, and do we have the option of letters following, or can we just go with numbers. thanks ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 09:13:54 AM PST US From: "DJ Vegh" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: registration numbers as I understand it you can do 5 numbers or up to 3 numbers if using 2 letters at the end. or 4 numbers with one letter at the end. you could also do 1, 2 or 3 numbers if 2 letters are used at the end. for example N1DB N12DB N123DB or N1234B or N12345 No more than 2 letters though.... (I think) There may be other rules but those are the ones I know of. ohhh and our N numbers can be as small as 3" tall.

My letter requested a number that ended in DL to honor my mentor. They came back with N140DL (you add the X) Think it's a $10.00 charge for the request and then $10.00 per year to hold it. OR you can go to WWW.landings.com and punch in any number that grabs you and it will tell you if it is issued or not walt evans NX140DL ----- Original Message ----- From: Douwe Blumberg To: pietenpolgroup Sent: Thursday, November 11, 2004 11:51 AM Subject: Pietenpol-List: registration numbers Hey, I'm starting to think about reserving some reg numbers.

If you use NX----- in your number you will not have to have the word EXPERIMENTAL posted inside of the plane. The X serves the same purpose. Alex Sloan -------------- Original message -------------- as I understand it you can do 5 numbers or up to 3 numbers if using 2 letters at the end. or 4 numbers with one letter at the end. you could also do 1, 2 or 3 numbers if 2 letters are used at the end. for example N1DB N12DB N123DB or N1234B or N12345 No more than 2 letters though.... (I think) There may be other rules but those are the ones I know of. ohhh and our N numbers can be as small as 3" tall.
