Topic: Jack Roush crashed his plane...again

[TopGun]

This guy needs to think about turning the flying over to someone else.  This is the second major accident since 2002.

The 2002 accident darn near killed him - a combination of being inverted, power-lines, and being submerged under water will do that to you.

Now, he crashes his private jet.  There's video here of him walking out of his broken jet...CAUTION with a pretty bloody face.  Note the tail number...N6JR...N6 Jack Roush!  I recall that Mario Andretti had a Jetstar and now a Gulfstream with N500MA on it.

^^Is that the way they do it with the tail numbers?  Or can you get them personalized??

If you have enough $. Certainly more than the $200 or so it costs for personal plates here.

I got to request mine when I imported it.  It was less than $200 if I recall...as long as it wasn't previously taken.

Really?
What about if it's already registered in Canada and you ask to change the registration?

Ya I think so.  The $140 mentioned in this excerpt rings a bell:

 6.4  SPECIAL REGISTRATION MARK

CARs 202.02

A registration mark is considered special if the applicant requests a specific mark rather than allowing CCARCS to generate the next alphabetically available mark. When an aircraft is returning to Canadian registration, after being exported or after having been withdrawn from use, and the owner wants the same mark the aircraft had when previously registered in Canada, it is considered a special mark. The fee for issuing or reserving a special mark is $140.

Can you find the section on what's allowable as far as "special registration mark"?

Probably...but I'm not going to.   

I looked for combos of initials of my not so little boy anymore. 

Here's the registration database link.  Enter C-GCTR, and you'll find who now owns the aircraft I solod in years ago.  Enter any string you want...and it will show you the aircraft registered.

I'd like to go over his flying background. I'm sure I wouldn't be surprised.

One thing is for sure, he wasn't my student.

Cool link.  The 172 I solo'ed in (IIK) is now in Manitoba.  A friends old 172 (NKJ) is now in Kingston.   

Thanks for posting TopGun!
