This sort of sighting isn't super-exciting at this point, but technically it was a random sighting (it came up at another forum):

No string of three consecutive letters, but we'll see some "oblique" EBT's in due time (something like EB 01 TA... I suppose the EB xx TR sequence would be the best :) even more oblique instances are out there already in the form of AE 02 BT, for example).
