The public federal record on N1817M, 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 Cavanaugh Flight Museum, a corporation, certificate issued January 29, 2009, expires April 30, 2029. 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 IC-1228 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N1817M was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna T210M (serial 21061963, cancelled August 10, 1990). 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]
2 NTSB records under N1817M: Accident on October 2, 1988 at Prosser, WA: fatal, destroyed (2 fatal). Accident on October 5, 1983 at Seattle, WA: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [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.
