The public federal record on N197RL, 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 Bk Seeds INC, a corporation, certificate issued July 2, 2026, expires July 31, 2033. 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 1863F25182295482KP37 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N197RL was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Le Blanc Ronald L GLASAIR (serial 197, cancelled August 30, 1991). 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 N197RL: Accident on October 6, 1988 at Redding, CA: serious injuries, destroyed. Accident on September 26, 1984 at Burns, OR: 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.
