Mike Bravo

My father wrote a couple of novels, which were never published. One of them probably would be likely now, but he was too conservative to make it steamy. It would be very plausible for a terrorist attack, and at one time I thought about trying to update it and see if it sells. I don't want to be responsible for something like that to actually happen, so it'll probably stay in my attic.
Anyway, like the idiot I am, I forgot to renew my airplane N-Number registration which I reserved in my fathers memory. It was the closest thing I could get to his plane number. So I checked last Monday, and on the Friday before, someone else got it. I've been kicking myself ever since.
I suppose it's time to get my own number, and all the ones I like are taken. I was thinking about different ones, and my friend said it should be something with MB, for Margarita Bob. I thought about it and the Phonetic Alphabet saying of MB is Mike Bravo. It sounded like a name that would be good for the main character in dad's book.
The only number that came up halfway decent is 806, which almost looks like Bob.
The number is going to be...
N806MB
"Experimental Eight Zero Six Mike Bravo. "
I can live with it.
