The airframe is aluminium: sheet metal over a riveted frame, the way most aircraft have been built since the 1940s. This is how the Piper PA-28 Cherokee, Warrior, Archer and Arrow family is built; the FAA does not record construction for each aircraft, and the type certificate data sheet is the authority for this one.

The public federal record on N3015D, 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 Flywell Flying Club INC, a corporation, certificate issued August 5, 1994, expires June 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 28-7990171 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N3015D was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 310 (serial 35215, cancelled December 10, 1973). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N3015D. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
