The public federal record on N30CC, 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 Talon Air Services INC, a corporation, certificate issued May 21, 2022, expires May 31, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated August 2, 1991, 27 years after the 1964 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 1566TB4 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N30CC was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: North American NA-265-60 (serial 30681, cancelled January 31, 1996). 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]
2 NTSB records under N30CC: Accident on August 5, 2016 at Wasilla, AK: minor injuries, substantial damage. Accident on May 29, 1999 at Anchorage, AK: no injuries, substantial damage. Details below. [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.
