The public federal record on N15XX, 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.

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated September 27, 1989, 38 years after the 1951 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 18-811 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N15XX was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Adams-V-Star Builders STOLP-V-STAR (serial 32074, cancelled June 27, 2012). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
