The public federal record on N2705D, 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 Bell Jeffrey K, an individual, certificate issued June 26, 2020, expires June 30, 2027. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Experimental certificate for amateur built, dated August 10, 2020, consistent with the 2020 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 82846 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N2705D was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Cessna 335 (serial 335-0008, cancelled April 13, 1981); Rawdon T1 (serial T1-23S, cancelled December 12, 1957). 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 N2705D. 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.
