aluminium with composite parts
A mostly aluminium airframe with composite parts where they save weight: control surfaces, fairings, the tail or the rotor blades. The Avanti: an aluminium fuselage with composite tail, forewing and fairings. This is how the Piaggio P180 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 N109MS, 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 Cavallino Rampante INC, a corporation, certificate issued May 31, 2025, expires May 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated April 5, 2000, 9 years after the 1991 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1008 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N109MS was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Messerschmitt ME 109 G (serial 610824, cancelled April 12, 1999). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

1 document received recently: Bill of sale (evidence of ownership) (October 21, 2026). [3]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N109MS. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

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.

PENDINGAirworthiness directives and utilization

AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
