The public federal record on N237, 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 Shannon Air Museum LLC, an LLC, certificate issued December 6, 2017, expires December 31, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for exhibition; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 187 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N237 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Camair 480 (serial 1-073, cancelled July 15, 1963); Bellanca CH (serial 2, cancelled May 15, 1933); Curtiss Wright JN4D (serial 5319, cancelled March 19, 1930). 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 N237. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
