Sorry…don’t have a photo of it, but I remember seeing one years ago in a hanger at my home airfield.
EI-EIO.
This would be mine if it wasn’t already taken.

Owned by O. MacDonald & Co. of course! :-)
No picture but I do recall seeing SE-XOP at a Pfa Rally
There are a few on the Swedish register that probably should not be allowed:
SE-MEN Beech F90
SE-XXX Lancair IV
SE-KKK Beech Duke
I am co-organizing a seaplane event in may 2015 and just had a confirmation that a Dornier Seastar will join in.
But if this is the reg and at the same time the name of the crew they may not even find Mallorca.

Make VERY sure to give us every possible detail – I am much excited, and anxious to be there, and so will a couple of fellows of mine!
Can you share some info now already? Location, perhaps?

30 April-1 May at LEPO (Pollensa bay, Mallorca). We’re working to have very interesting planes there plus the Spanish Air Force aerobatic team (if Spain is not bankrupt by then). Then the whole circus moves on to LELC (Murcia) to land at a defunct seaplane base there.
Plenty of savvy engineers on this forum, so come on guys, design and build floats, stick ’m on and join in..
Sorry for the thread drift, but Jan started it.
I have personally seen G-BOLX (at Shoreham) but read a rumour that the CAA forced the owner to change it. I don’t actually believe that. I can see they allowed G-WILY and G-FANY for example.
The novelty wears off pretty fast in some cases I know about, especially as most of the funny ones are a bugger to pronounce using the aviation alphabet. The best one for being practical uses single-syllable letters
