The public federal record on N173RG, 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 Buchert Christine W, an individual, certificate issued October 7, 2022, expires October 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated August 9, 2023, 43 years after the 1980 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 172RG0218 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N173RG was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Wood Denis E VELOCITY 173RG (serial 3RE052, cancelled August 10, 2011). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

CLEARAccident and incident record
