Walt, I don't have the reg in front of me, but there is a loophole that allows some liberties with replicas. Piets are considered replicas of planes that were registered by the CAA in those days. All of the antique airplane guys and particularly the replica builders homed in on the loophole long ago. The reg allows you to use markings authentic to the era of the plane including "N" plus "C" or "R" or "X". There are the basic requirements for size and "N" at minimum must precede the number. I will get the actual reg out at work tomorrow and double check the wording. Terry________________________________________________________________________________
