The public federal record on N243BA, 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 Bush Aviation LLC, an LLC, certificate issued May 13, 2016, expires May 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 13, 2016, 17 years after the 1999 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 5401 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N243BA was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Boeing 747SR-100 (serial 22294, cancelled January 6, 2005). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
1 loan or lien document received by the registry recently (September 23, 2026). The full title and lien picture is in the FAA aircraft records file. [3]
No NTSB investigation records located under N243BA. 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.
