However I believe they did freeze Earhart's Electras N-number....don't really know why. Hardly a federal concern.
And perhaps they have also blocked N(X)211?
You weren't kidding. N[R]16020 is "permanently reserved" to Amelia Earhart. Fascinating, I've never seen anything like that. It was reserved on 19 February 1988, so if any commemorations or other events related to her happened around that date, they are probably the cause. Also, it has an assigned mode S code. Seems like someone should have checked for her transponder during the search...
Also, N[X]211 is registered to the EAA's replica Spirit of St. Louis.
