The public federal record on N18010, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "Sale reported". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 17, 1988, 33 years after the 1955 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 139-177 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N18010 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 150L (serial 15073727, cancelled December 15, 1988). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
