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]

N20816 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 172M (serial 17263845, cancelled December 2, 1974). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
