Records check free · 1 to understand · 3 clear

The public federal record on N280K, 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 Unlimited Promotions LTD, a corporation, certificate issued July 21, 2022, expires July 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

NOTEAirworthiness certificate

Experimental certificate for racing; exhibition; the FAA file gives no certificate date and no manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 29706 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N280K was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Fairchild KR-31 (serial 319, cancelled May 9, 1939); Beech B90 (serial LJ338, cancelled date not given). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N280K. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
