The public federal record on N31431, 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 Carlton John B, an individual, certificate issued October 27, 1992, expires September 30, 2028. No fractional interest recorded. [1]
The airworthiness certificate on file is dated November 18, 1993, 25 years after the 1968 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 140063 for this model in the deregistered file. [2]
N31431 was previously assigned to 2 other aircraft: Aerotek PITTS S-2A (serial 2161, cancelled December 23, 1988); Aeronca 65-TC (serial C5280T, cancelled February 28, 1952). 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 N31431. 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.
