The public federal record on N1579V, 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 Mava Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued June 15, 2022, expires June 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated March 24, 2023, consistent with the 2023 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial JA608-12-20 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N1579V was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Dehavilland DH104 DOVE 6BA (serial 04384, cancelled May 5, 2015). 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 N1579V. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
