- Built of
- steel tube, wood and fabricA welded steel-tube fuselage and wooden wings, all covered in fabric: the construction of the 1930s and 1940s, which makes wood rot and fabric age the inspection items. The Mite: an all-wood single-seater under fabric. This is how the Mooney M-18 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 N18GS, 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 Slad George W, an individual, certificate issued September 23, 2026, expires September 30, 2033. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 121 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N18GS was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Spaulding Gene B GLASAIR SH-2 (serial 427, cancelled March 13, 2018). 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 N18GS. 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.
