What is the format to amend the aircraft identification of CID 214 to N6968G?

Explanation:
This tests the exact command sequence used to update an existing CID’s data, specifically the aircraft identification field. The correct format starts with the amendment indicator, then the CID you’re changing, then the code that designates which field is being updated, followed by the new value, and you finally press enter. First you indicate you’re amending (AM), then you target CID 214 so the system knows which record to modify. The code 02 tells the system you’re changing the aircraft identification field. Then you provide the new identification, N6968G, and press enter to submit. This exact order ensures the system updates CID 214’s identification to N6968G. The other formats don’t follow this order: they either omit the CID, omit the field code, or place the new value before identifying which field to update, which would leave the system without a clear instruction on which record or which field to change.
