Default Don't They?

Hi Ben

RMY683 is 74th carrier from the start of the contract, RMY609. 74 onto T5255 (start of contract T number) gives you T5329. Or is it too late for me?
Great project, many congrats.

Interestingly it means that the "T" numbers and registration numbers don't match sequentially as they might suggest. 683 is one higher than i would have expected.

I think it's amazing that details like this survive.
