Built of

An ultralight-style airframe: bolted aluminium tubing under sailcloth or fabric, the construction of weight-shift trikes and the lightest two-seaters. A weight-shift trike: an aluminium-tube carriage under a sailcloth wing. This is how the Apollo Aircraft Inc MONSOON family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N1055R, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Caldwell John L, an individual, certificate issued September 20, 2022, expires September 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Light sport certificate for weight-shift control, dated June 26, 2008, consistent with the 2008 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 00004 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N1055R was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Raven S55A (serial S55A-247, cancelled October 25, 2010). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N1055R. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
