The public federal record on N117AC, 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 Hayden Angela R, a co-owned, certificate issued October 18, 2011, expires October 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 31, 2000, 32 years after the 1968 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]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 18258609 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N117AC was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 401A (serial 401A0040, cancelled February 19, 1997). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
