The public federal record on N2302F, 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.

The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 2, 2001, 49 years after the 1952 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 55188 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N2302F was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 210D (serial 21058502, cancelled December 23, 1964). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
