Hi Charly -

United Kingdom for June - woud that include the Manx ragister, M-? Technically part of the UK!

Then for July my suggestion is Austria, which I'd have voted for if it was an option this month.

Then for August...

Thanks for the things you do for FS.

Thanks.

Yes, In this case M-, 2- and ZJ- registrations will be included for United Kingdom.

Luckily the UK is already covered well for online registry information.

For the UK there's the G-INFO site that you might already know about, https://siteapps.caa.co.uk/g-info/ although the types are not always recorded in exactly the same way, sometimes a search might not find all examples.

For example since you have done some Pilatus PC-12 paints, this is the list pulled up by G-INFO for the mainland UK.

1    G-ERGP    1564    PILATUS PC-12/47E
2    G-FITC    1926    PILATUS PC-12/47E
3    G-FLXI    1275    PILATUS PC-12/47E
4    G-GEFF    1359    PILATUS PC-12/47E
5    G-KARE    1257    PILATUS PC-12/47E
6    G-KFTI    1813    PILATUS PC-12/47E
7    G-LBHA    1904    PILATUS PC-12/47E
8    G-LUSO    1880    PILATUS PC-12/47E
9    G-MAKN    1744    PILATUS PC-12/47E
10    G-NBCA    1717    PILATUS PC-12/47E
11    G-OMSL    1842    PILATUS PC-12/47E
12    G-PCIZ    1639    PILATUS PC-12/47E
13    G-PCTW    1674    PILATUS PC-12/47E
14    G-PKHA    1776    PILATUS PC-12/47E
15    G-TRAT      710    PILATUS PC-12/47

This is the whole Guernsey register for May, but it is about to be updated - it looks as though it is done monthly.

https://www.2-reg.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/register-20200501-2.pdf

2-DARE
2-FLYT
2-FLYY
2-LIVE

And there are 34 PC-12s on the Manx register, searchable here https://www.iomaircraftregistry.com/about-us/registered-aircraft/

I'm not suggesting PC-12s as such, but you've made a lot of PC-12 paints recently and I was just curious as to how many come up in a search, 53, unless any new 2- reg planes were registsred in the past month. That's probably too much for a month especially if you want variety, but at least the search locations are here if you need them!

Thanks for the list. I'm trying to get as many PC-12s done this weekend. Have just updated the paint kit to include the new NGX windows as well and I'm looking forward to get some of those painted too.
