Built of
composite
The airframe is composite: carbon fibre or glass fibre set in resin, moulded in large pieces with few joints, which gives smooth shapes but needs different inspection and repair methods from metal. The TTx, from the Columbia design: carbon fibre. This is how the Cessna T240 family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N240DW, 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

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N240DW was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Convair 240-4 (serial 123, cancelled January 15, 1979). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N240DW. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
