The public federal record on N2047L, 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 Riley Jacob, an individual, certificate issued August 11, 2020, expires August 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated November 17, 2025, 52 years after the 1973 manufacture year. A re-issued certificate commonly follows export and re-import, a rebuild, or a return to the register after cancellation. The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 395194 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N2047L was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Sikorsky S-76C (serial 760539, cancelled April 26, 2004); Beech 58 (serial TH989, cancelled February 2, 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]
1 NTSB record under N2047L: Accident on September 4, 1984 at Laurens, SC: 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.
