The public federal record on N116NS, 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 Airbus Helicopters INC, a non-citizen corporation, certificate issued June 24, 2026, expires June 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 9906 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N116NS was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 150L (serial 15075564, cancelled August 31, 1977). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
1 loan or lien document received by the registry recently (September 11, 2026). The full title and lien picture is in the FAA aircraft records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N116NS. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
