This guy who hangars where I fly from has a nice tail number (and airplane!). He’s also a really nice guy!

Thats a blast from the past for me. A friend had a nicely restored J-Bonanza and he got N-one and his initials. He is Cal Earley. I flew with him some and I got stick time in the old N1CE. Late 70's early 80's.
 
I learned to fly in 50909. Was not fond of the tail number. Now I fly a Skylane in airspace that has several other Skylanes with very similar N-numbers.
 
How about the N number for the Goodyear Blimp?

“Podunk tower, this is November One Alpha, the Goodyear Blimp Mayflower, 8 out for landing with Oscar. We ought to be over the field in a day or two…”

My wife is from just over the border to the north. I’ve thought of reserving N4Q, but it appears that one is already gone. “Montreal Radio, Bonjour, N4Q…”
 
So odd that when you reserve the format is N-123AB

So you cannot use the dash in the number on your plane can you?
 
I flew N369WP. We have Cherokees 49R & 68J at same airport. Chaperone in hangar?
 
Projects long since gone to market:
N92515 Piper
N46515 Aeronca

Put the parts together and I could have had N515.

If you have a Piper, you need to change the number to end in 202. And, of course, fly into Teterboro...

I grew up flying in N19998 It was known as One Triple Niner Eight I miss that n-number!

I fly my friend's 182 quite often. N3VQ More than a few times I've called in with Skylane 3VQ and had them ask for my full n-number! I laugh and tell them that's it.
 
The hangar across the taxiway from me has a Citation N90DB...I told the owner that was the loudest N number on the field....had to explain :)
