The public federal record on N30296, 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.

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 16200096 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N30296 was previously assigned to 3 other aircraft: Robinson Helicopter R22 BETA (serial 4136, cancelled April 18, 2007); Piper PA-28-161 (serial 28-7916081, cancelled August 27, 1980); Piper J-3 (serial 4772, cancelled October 27, 1954).
