The public federal record on N222KC, 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 U S Army - Owner, a government body, certificate issued May 15, 2020, expires May 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 2, 2020, 41 years after the 1979 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 BC-68 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N222KC was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Piper PA-28-140 (serial 28-7525290, cancelled August 20, 2013); Cessna 402B (serial 402B0560, cancelled June 9, 1989). 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 N222KC: Accident on July 30, 1995 at Kingman, KS: 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.
