GSG was originally imported and operated by bobby gibbes who owned and operated gibbes sepik airways. in PNG. There are numerous aircraft not under the GFA banner on the VH register that are VH-G’s. Many were there before GFA was formed but unfortunately, after the requirement to register GFA sailplanes, while intended the GFA did not reserve that G block. Noel.

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.

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.
