The public federal record on N3143D, 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 Roland Ann J, an individual, certificate issued April 26, 2019, expires April 30, 2029. No fractional interest recorded. [1]

CLEARPrior registrations of this airframe

No earlier tail number is recorded against serial SA1025-75013LF for this model in the deregistered file. [2]

ATTENTIONTail number reuse

N3143D was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Cessna 180 (serial 31941, cancelled June 18, 1970). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]

NOTERecent registry documents

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
