The public federal record on N11297, 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.

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N11297 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Aeronca C-3 (serial A129, cancelled August 1, 1941). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
