Built of
composite
The airframe is composite: carbon fibre or glass fibre set in resin, moulded in large pieces with few joints, which gives smooth shapes but needs different inspection and repair methods from metal. The TTx, from the Columbia design: carbon fibre. This is how the Cessna T240 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N171CS, 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 Cjah Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued October 14, 2025, expires October 31, 2032. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial T24002071 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N171CS was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cirrus Design Corp SR22 (serial 3483, cancelled September 28, 2009). 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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N171CS. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
