Default Let's see your aviation-themed license plates

Just wondering if y'all have any clever custom plates. If I could figure out how to attach an image, I would, but my two cars have:

XCD MMO
XCD VNE

Needless to say, nobody 'gets' either of these...except at the local GA field where I've had more than a few people do a double-take.

(The XCD VNE idea wasn't mine...I cribbed it from some dude in another state. Then I needed another plate, so XCD MMO seemed logical.)

The only one I've seen that really made me cringe was RIDL175. Dear Lord.

What have y'all got?

This is a job to get money. Not my identity.

When we lived in Wyoming and they didn't care what you put on a vanity plate, my wife put my old, pre PC purge Navy callsign on my trucks license plate.

Move to Virginia and they are like "your plate says what??!!?" when I went to re-plate it here. State of VA actually refused to even touch it. " just give me a truck plate" lady at DMV refused.

Truck has WY plates to this day. They did eventually not renew my "obscene" plate and I just have a standard WY truck plate now.
