The public federal record on N226TA, 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.

ATTENTIONRegistration and identity

Registration status is "Sale reported, canceled". An aircraft cannot be operated on an invalid or expired registration; resolve this with the FAA before any transaction. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for normal, dated July 12, 2005, consistent with the 2005 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 3904 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

CLEARTail number reuse

No other airframe has carried N226TA according to the deregistered file. [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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N226TA. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
