LBARULES, thats the first I have heard of that theory, previously I hadn’t a clue what they were registered like that for!
THe BA registrations have some kind of a pattern to them in pretty much all cases, and I saw an explanation for everyone once!
Heres what i remember though:
Airbus Fleet:
G-EU** Europe – Nice and simple!
ERJ145 Fleet:
G-EMB* and G-ERJ* Very Obvious
Dash 8 Fleet:
G-BRY* Operated originally by Brymon
Boeing 777 Fleet:
G-VII* VII is Roman for 7
G-YMMM MMM is Roman for 2000 (Year 2000)
And for Aurigny something that Wysiwyg told me:
G-GNT* for the Saabs, they came from Business Air (I think!) whose callsign was Granite. G-RUNG was registered after a Mr Rungsfeld (Again, I think!) who owned or had an interest in the airline.
They are the only ones I can think of at the moment, although as I said I think everything had a reason.
