Twenty six letters in the alphabet. So 26 x 26 combinations =676.
So nearly half the gliders and motor gliders aren't G_ _.
There is also at least one powered aircraft with a G registration.
IIRC it was a Cessna 182. There may be more.

Hi all,
I probably should know this but how do we control registrations.
Hackett, Borgelt or Scutter will no how to calculate how many
markings are available starting with G but I suspect that there are
many G _ _ that are unflown.
I guess my question is how many gliders are out there never to fly
again and do we actively control them.
I get that there are many aircraft that are capable of restoration
however surely things like Blaniks and other things hanging from
hangar trusses that will never be flown again can be de-registered
back to their serial number so that should a miracle happen they can
be registered.
