The public federal record on N212AK, 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 Hinshaw Martin e, an individual, certificate issued December 16, 2019, expires December 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated February 28, 2020, 42 years after the 1978 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 431 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N212AK was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Grumman S2F-1 (TS-2A) (serial BU136669, cancelled February 16, 2011). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
1 document received recently: Bill of sale (evidence of ownership) (October 22, 2026). [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N212AK. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
