The public federal record on N1963, 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 Wampler James C, an individual, certificate issued August 3, 2017, expires August 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated December 21, 2000, consistent with the 2000 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1901-01 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N1963 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Boeing 727-95 (serial 19837, cancelled July 21, 1977); Waco GXE (serial 920, cancelled April 15, 1938). 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 N1963. 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.
