The public federal record on N224YA, 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 Ace Aeronautics LLC, an LLC, certificate issued November 7, 2023, expires November 30, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 14, 2026, 41 years after the 1985 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 85-24387 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

CLEARTail number reuse

No other airframe has carried N224YA according to the deregistered file. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

1 document received recently: Loan release (September 3, 2026). [3]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N224YA. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
