The public federal record on N254BA, 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 Pullup Associates INC, a corporation, certificate issued February 9, 2024, expires February 28, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated March 16, 2024, 50 years after the 1974 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 026030 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N254BA was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Icon Aircraft Inc A5 (serial 00038, cancelled October 16, 2018); Let L-23 SUPER BLANIK (serial 917803, cancelled February 25, 2011). 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]
2 NTSB records under N254BA: Accident on July 15, 1999 at Jacksonville, FL: no injuries, substantial damage. Accident on December 16, 1995 at Jacksonville, FL: 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.
