The public federal record on N1023K, read the way a buyer, lender or insurer reads it: FAA registration, prior tail numbers keyed on the serial number, reuse of the tail number, recent registry filings, and the NTSB accident record under this and every earlier registration.
Valid registration to Bushak Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued May 26, 2021, expires May 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 2, 1983, 29 years after the 1954 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 18-3942 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N1023K was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Luscombe 8A (serial 3750, cancelled February 14, 1956). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
No bills of sale, loans or releases have reached the registry in recent weeks. The index covers only recent filings; older liens are in the records file. [3]
1 NTSB record under N1023K: Accident on August 6, 1987 at Hopeful, GA: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [4]
These live in the FAA aircraft records file (every document ever filed against the aircraft) and, for larger aircraft, the International Registry. Part of the full report.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
