N12AJ is a Pilatus Aircraft Ltd PC-24, a fixed-wing airplane with more than one motor with turbofan engines, built in 2025. It has 9 seats. It is registered to Lexa International CORP, a non-citizen corporation in New York, New York.

It holds a standard airworthiness certificate for commuter, dated March 13, 2025.

The public federal record on N12AJ, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "Non-citizen corporation that has not returned its flight-hour reports". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for commuter, dated March 13, 2025, consistent with the 2025 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 561 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N12AJ was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Schleicher ASW-20C (serial 20703, cancelled May 30, 2019); Schleicher AS-W12 (serial 12014, cancelled date not given). 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 N12AJ. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms

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.
