The public federal record on N2209A, 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 Johnston Forrest L, an individual, certificate issued March 1, 2016, expires March 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 20, 1997, 6 years after the 1991 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 001 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N2209A was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Piper PA-18A (serial 18-1885, cancelled August 13, 1958); Piper PA-32RT-300 (serial 32R7985006, cancelled date not given). 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 N2209A: Accident on April 24, 1984 at Hopwood, PA: fatal, destroyed (1 fatal). 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.
