The public federal record on N2286W, 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 Smeltzer Paul C, an individual, certificate issued March 16, 2024, expires March 31, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated May 4, 2018, consistent with the 2018 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 1 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N2286W was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Bell 206A (serial 458, cancelled December 31, 1969). 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]
No NTSB investigation records located under N2286W. 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.
