The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. This is how the Cessna 210 Centurion family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N210M, 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 an owner whose details are withheld, an individual, certificate issued December 1, 2021, expires December 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated September 12, 2022, 46 years after the 1976 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]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 21061600 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N210M was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Cessna 210B (serial 21058073, cancelled May 30, 2013); Beech 35-33 (serial CD158, cancelled April 6, 1988); Davis V-3 (serial 121, cancelled February 10, 1948). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

ATTENTIONAccident and incident record

2 NTSB records under N210M: Accident on June 11, 1994 at Culpepper, VA: fatal, destroyed (2 fatal). Accident on December 28, 1986 at Blountville, TN: fatal, substantial damage (2 fatal). Details below. [4]
