The public federal record on N31015, 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 Delta Breeze Hot Air Balloon Promotions LLC, an LLC, certificate issued June 8, 2024, expires June 30, 2031. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARAirworthiness certificate

Standard certificate for balloon, dated April 7, 1999, consistent with the 1999 manufacture year. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial 278 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N31015 was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Lockheed L-1011-385-1 (serial 193B1059, cancelled February 1, 1995). 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]

CLEARAccident and incident record

No NTSB investigation records located under N31015. CLEAR means the query ran and returned nothing, not that nothing ever happened. [4]
