The public federal record on N25196, 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

Valid registration to Fort Wolters Helicopter INC, a corporation, certificate issued February 20, 2004, expires July 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Multiple certificate for standard; restricted; agriculture and pest control, dated May 17, 1977, consistent with the 1976 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N25196 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Brewster FLEET 2 (serial 38, cancelled April 4, 1940). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record
