The public federal record on N3003T, 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 Haynes e Anthony, an individual, certificate issued August 23, 2004, expires January 31, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for balloon, dated July 1, 1996, consistent with the 1996 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 6029 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N3003T was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Fairchild SA227-AC (serial AC789B, cancelled September 8, 1992); Cessna 206 (serial 2060158, 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 N3003T. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]

PENDINGTitle chain, liens and 337 forms
