Sorry if this has been visited before, but I saw
V1PHS
on the A1 today ..... ex Harrier perhaps?
Also SKY80Y at a Finningley Open Day, and the then head of the Mobile Met. Unit had MMU1.

M25 near Heathrow, 2016.
No, Constable ... I was in a National Express coach, LGW-LHR, at the time.
Not the UK reg, but the one in the window, from North Carolina. "Vzlet" is Czech for "takeoff". (Occasionally adopted as a username!)

E3SUX used to be available - I almost bought it four years ago. Any disgruntled E-3 aircrew not willing or able to make the trek up north could always go for E7SUX (£399).
About 30 years ago I was waiting to cross a junction in the centre of Lincoln, when a Rolls/Bentley (not sure which) wafted past wearing the plate '1 RAF'. Very impressive - always remembered that.
I have seen a Porsche 911 with 'V1 V2 R', and at Shawbury there was - maybe still is - a bootie pilot with 'FLY RM' on his car.
Best plate I ever saw was not aviation related. At a carshow there was an original Lamborghini Countach with a front plate which was 'T13VOM'. It took me a minute to get it - when you see it behind you in the rearview mirror, it reads 'MOVEIT'.

I was bored one night and started searching aviation related plates and found this for £250. Couldn’t resist buying it. (I don’t even work for the company)
Less than 24 hours later an engineer offered me £500 and the dad of a FA offered me £750.
Im greedy so I kept it hoping Phil Meeson or Steve Heapy might want it. Anyone friends with them ?
