The public federal record on N24BR, 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 River Front Akn LLC, an LLC, certificate issued February 27, 2012, expires February 29, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated May 28, 1993, 40 years after the 1953 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 644 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N24BR was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Beech C24R (serial MC537, cancelled July 29, 1988). 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]
3 NTSB records under N24BR: Accident on September 19, 2022 at Egegik, AK: minor injuries, substantial damage. Accident on October 7, 2007 at King Salmon, AK: minor injuries, substantial damage. Accident on August 31, 1990 at Alagnak River, AK: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [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.
