The public federal record on N161H, 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 Hylio INC, a corporation, certificate issued April 29, 2026, expires April 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
No airworthiness certificate is on file. Usual for a newly registered aircraft, a project, or an aircraft that has not flown since a change of registration; ask for the certificate. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 17906130284 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N161H was previously assigned to 4 other aircraft: Sonnicksen Ralph LANCAIR 235 (serial 52, cancelled May 3, 2018); Douglas A-26C (serial 29227, cancelled December 17, 1974); Waco UPF-7 (serial 5580, cancelled December 14, 1950). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N161H. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
