The public federal record on N18X, 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 Becker James, an individual, certificate issued April 15, 2013, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial E-1353 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N18X was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna T337H (serial 33701831, cancelled October 18, 1996); Rockwell International Corp NA-265-60 (serial 306137, cancelled February 7, 1992). 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
