Hey everyone.

 

Though this might not be a general issue with most who currently design liveries on here, it could be a potential question for newer members looking to just get into livery making. That question being: what registration to use?

 

What I have seen some people do before is just slap on a random prefix for a registration because it "seemed to fit", but it actually ends up being incorrect. Hopefully, this won't be much of an issue any further, as I'm here to show you guys a cool little cheat sheet for just this. Taken from http://aircraft-regi...s.blogspot.com/, I've listed below the aircraft registration prefix to nearly every country on the planet, and the instructions are simple.

 

 

To find the registration prefix you need, just follow these simple steps:

 

1. Press CTRL+F to bring up the "Find Bar"

 

2. Type in the name of the Country your airline operates in.

 

Done correctly, your internet browser will highlight the name of the country from the list below, the prefix corresponding to that country will be listed right next to it.

 

Hope this helps!

 

 

*List will be updated with any I've missed*

In Colombia there are some specific rules for the registration >_<

Also HJ is used too.

 

Its not only to add 1-2 letters to the registration, IF YOU want to make more real need to make a little investigation, some countries dont allow color on the registration others have specific size of the registration font and position in the plane. Some countries use their merchant flag (a alternate flag) joint with the registration. Others dont matter of nothing.

 

Success with your design. (i will dont reply)

I do believe so, however I'll double check. Bear in mind that I've simply taken all the codes above from a blog site (for everyone's convenience here on AE) so there is a chance likelihood some things are missing. I'll do my best to update whatever needs adjustments.

It isn't on wikipedia either. Not the most reliable source, but that's two sources that don't include it, so i think it is a safe conclusion that it is the US. So does this mean all US territories use US reg?
