The public federal record on N3117Y, 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 Martin Jonathan, an individual, certificate issued June 30, 2015, expires June 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated September 27, 2007, 5 years after the 2002 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 WA 942 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N3117Y was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 182E (serial 18254117, cancelled July 20, 2005). 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 N3117Y: Accident on September 19, 1993 at Quilcene, WA: no injuries, substantial damage. Accident on November 9, 1989 at Quilcene, WA: 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.
