The public federal record on N22875, 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 Lowe Anthony E, an individual, certificate issued January 30, 2020, expires January 31, 2030. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

ATTENTIONAirworthiness certificate date

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated June 25, 1956, 10 years after the 1946 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 15465 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N22875 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 150H (serial 15068581, cancelled January 2, 1990). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
