Apart from the Reg nos on Aircraft Forehead

The Markings on the NLG doors help too when driving on the Perimeter road to locate an Aircraft.

The Location,Size & Colour of the Nationality & Registration marks are as per the Regulatory Authority of the Country concerned.In our Case DGCA specifies it in Civil Aviation Requirements & Indian Aircraft Rules.
