The public federal record on N1159E, 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.
Registration status is "Registration pending, pending cancellation". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]
Standard certificate for normal, dated June 10, 1977, consistent with the 1977 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 312-77 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N1159E was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Aeronca 7AC (serial 7AC-4714, cancelled May 18, 1965). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N1159E. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
