Built of
composite
The airframe is composite: carbon fibre or glass fibre set in resin, moulded in large pieces with few joints, which gives smooth shapes but needs different inspection and repair methods from metal. This is how the Pipistrel VIRUS SW 121A family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N129RR, 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 Steadfast Entities LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 13, 2023, expires February 28, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Experimental certificate for exhibition, dated February 17, 2023, consistent with the 2022 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial VSWX121A0127 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N129RR was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 421A (serial 421A0006, cancelled July 14, 1989). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N129RR. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
