The public federal record on N15460, 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 Variety Childrens Hospital DBA, a corporation, certificate issued February 13, 2024, expires February 28, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 9, 2024, 12 years after the 2012 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 41323 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N15460 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Sikorsky S-76C (serial 760477, cancelled November 10, 2023); Piper PA-28-140 (serial 28-7225575, cancelled March 21, 1973); Porterfield 35-70 (serial 160, cancelled May 10, 1948). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

Aircraft on the NTSB record: Sikorsky S76A+ · operated under 091
The flight crew's diverted attention, inadequate visual lookout, and failure to ensure adequate main rotor clearance. Factors in the accident were the continued operation, with known obstructions in the area, and the failure of the FAA to initially certify the operation prior to its commencement.
