The public federal record on N2494P, 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 Knowles Richard D, an individual, certificate issued July 30, 2018, expires July 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for registered before jan 31, 2008, dated July 30, 2007, consistent with the 2006 manufacture year. [1]

N2494P was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-38-112 (serial 3879A1012, cancelled November 7, 1990). 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 N2494P. 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.
