The public federal record on N3021N, 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 Ninomiya John K, an individual, certificate issued November 24, 1998, expires February 28, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
Standard certificate for balloon, dated September 24, 1998, consistent with the 1998 manufacture year. [1]
No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 5080 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N3021N was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 120 (serial 13279, cancelled February 14, 1951). 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 N3021N. 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.
AD compliance against the logbooks and flight-activity reconciliation are researched layers of the full report.
