Haha, yeah, it seems to be very difficult with only 2-letters, because here are the following rego's:

C/N 35302 VH-VOZ (was VH-VGA ntu)
C/N 37938 VH-VPD (was VH-VGC ntu)
C/N 37939 VH-VPE (was VH-VGD ntu)
C/N 37940 VH-VPF (was VH-VGE ntu)
Provided by Bobby C in this thread

Seems like -VOZ was purposely done to sound 'Aussie'..but the following seem to be in standard order.

ahhh...or maybe they are using that one because its their ICAO code?:confused::rolleyes:

Or because it happens to be the last one in the VO block, held by DJ?

VOZ is Virgin Blue's ICAO code. VAU is V Australia's code*. :)


* - according to Wikipedia. Don't know if it's accurate or not.

"parent company's" ICAO

There are various photos of VH-VGA :confused: so they have now changed the rego ?

Then there'll be...

VH-GAL = Get A Life! :rolleyes:

That's correct Andrew. When the aircraft first came out of the paintshop it had -VGA rego on, but if you have a real close look at the photo linked on Page 1 of this thread you'll see she is now tagged as VH-VOZ.

Still no word on delivery date for VA's first bird ?
