The public federal record on N12301, 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.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 121198 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N12301 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Boeing 727-231 (serial 19558, cancelled September 13, 1994); Curtiss Wright CW-1 (serial 1271, cancelled June 15, 1941). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
