The public federal record on N1297E, 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.

CLEARRegistration and identity

Valid registration to Wood Paul Richard, an individual, certificate issued September 28, 2022, expires September 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated October 22, 2014, 6 years after the 2008 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 411097 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N1297E was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 208B (serial 208B1158, cancelled November 14, 2005); Aeronca 7AC (serial 7AC-4857, cancelled July 18, 1973). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
