The public federal record on N105D, 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 Schultz Steven R, an individual, certificate issued November 9, 2022, expires November 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated December 9, 2019, consistent with the 2019 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 002 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N105D was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Dramesi John A RAM SI (serial WL0071D, cancelled November 22, 2002); Wait MIDGET MUSTANG M-1 (serial 564, cancelled October 9, 1980). 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]
