The public federal record on N292M, 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 Crawford Jimmy C, an individual, certificate issued August 3, 2009, expires January 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated July 30, 2026, 26 years after the 2000 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 WB001 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N292M was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Piper PA-23-250 (serial 27-305, cancelled April 11, 1974). 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]
