Great photos... but I love the registrations... obviously someone has a sense of humor there! O-Bill !... O-Bebe ! It's like something out of a cheesy 1930's romance film.... :D I love it though!

Thanks for posting!

Cheers,
Richard

When I was in A&P school one exercise was to lay out registration numbers on a dummy control surface. For practice I layed out the Belgian registration OO-LALA! The instructor didn't have a sense of humor so I had to resort to a typical American N number.

Nice to see a couple of Fokkers named after Bill and Babe . Especially since they didn't liberate it until Sept, 1944.

Maybe because that isn't a Belgian reg? :P Belgian registrations are OO-XXX 8)

Yes they are. O-XXXX was the first Belgian reg system. But modern day registrations are OO-XXX, not XXXX
