I thought this might spark a fun thread. Post images of aircraft with interesting tail numbers. If it's not completely obvious why the tail number is interesting please explain why it's interesting. For example, actor John Travolta's Boeing 707's tail number is N707JT. One of Nike's Gulfstream's registration number is N1KE. A tail number visible in the image is preferred, but not required.

I'll kick it off with an original tail number. Here's a recent shot of a Gulfstream G-V with a registration number C-GLFV

There's another thread around here somewhere featuring some of the more well known "vanity" numbers of the NASCAR Air Force departing Talladega.

Bombardier Demonstrators .. The "N" Numbers pretty much speak for themselves:

Oddly enough, the 5000 they had here that day did not have a "vanity" number...
